TEACHERSPEAK: A Crash Curse in Crass Pedagogy

	Spynd jest a phew meinutes preporin fir klass
	konfident thungs wall fall in place.

	Spynd mast of yer time chutting with other tachers
	keeping yerself pallitikully syfe.

	Buggin' lessens a fusshionably late –
	thyme is naught importint any weigh.

	End lussins early –
	stewdents laikku langer breaks.

	Stick to fizzed reutines –
	so u don't huvo ta thaink.

	Expeerimunt unly whun safe:
	learnin' iz merely a game.

	Whin students siem dead
	inject 'em with fear –
	nuthang is bitter thun dread
	ta get 'em in haigh gear.

	Teach fur tha test
	& test ta teach.

	Den't bather ta review –
	dat hippens (may-B) in exhumination veek.



Melissa: (Shaking her head) This isn't so different from what many medicore teachers do.

Liao: 	 Perhaps, but does such satire actually have any value?

Tim: 	 (sigh) In my view, it's merely a rant. Its only value is stress release.
