Things students will do for paper extensions:

explain to us all the REAL reason behind global warming... in Spanish with their mouths taped shut



wear their hair like Shirley Temple


give us a projector show of their baby pictures





eat a full piece of pizza with a full cup of applesauce dumped on top




lead the class in some yoga and pilates; aka "yogalates"






bake a SWILUA sculpture with eerie likeness




kiss the ground SWILUA walks on








and dress like... this.

I must must must:
a) come up with an honorarium at least half as cool as SWILUA,
b) learn how to effectively implement the paper extension activities, and
c) experiment on my own students

I've decided this will make my life much more interesting. Any tips?

SWILUA said...

I put it on the syllabus, which is titled, "SWILUA's Manifesto." You can have it if you want.

(You can copy it if you want, too. I sort of copied the persona of "SWILUA" from Zina who calls herself, "She who must be obeyed." Teaching is all ABOUT stealing stuff from people, right?)

Oh, man. Don't tempt me like that unless you mean it.

You know my email address.

And I'll be coming through town in January to buy you ice cream.
