What I wouldn't give for students that creative and clever. I hope I'd have the same sense of humor in that situation as the teacher in this video has!
My favorite line: "Can I borrow your T-I-Eighty three-eee?". This video is hilarious... Robert, I know what you mean - I wish my students who need to burn off energy or frustration, or just want attention, would do it in a positive, funny, harmless way. Maybe we should have a practical joke class...I can already imagine final exam week...
I am a math teacher in the Bay Area, California. Previously, I taught for eleven years at Downtown College Prep charter high school in San Jose, where the target student is low-skilled and of the first generation to go to college. Currently, I am teaching at Capuchino high school in San Bruno.
On this blog, I will post strategies that I am trying, and I would love to see strategies that others are using to help bring students up to grade level and teach them real math skills.

Note: if you don't have Gill Sans, try changing the font to Tahoma. These files were all created in Mac OS X.
I work in Keynote, and export the presentations to Quicktime for those who don't have Keynote to check them out. If you want something in Powerpoint, let me know, and I can usually convert it reasonably well.

I'll be honest--I don't get it. What's the context? Who are these kids? Is this a parody of some show tune I should know or something?
