������������ ENGLISH CLASS- 3/30/10 (Haha: 30/3= 10) (SCENE 1: the class is playing a board race. They are reviewing capitalization. MARIAH scowls at the stupidity of a teach telling them to take their time on their work and then doing board *races* with them.) MARIAH: He forgot a period. It shouldn't count. AUSTIN 1: Oh my gosh, Mariah! MARIAH: She said it had to be *correct* with *correct* capitalization. I assume she meant punctuation. ACCUSED (sorry, I forgot who it was): Nu-uh! PERSON RACING AGAINST ACCUSED: Yu-hu! (CLASS breaks out into random chatter about how idiotic MARIAH can be) MRS. JONES: You're right, it doesn't count. (SCENE 2: MARIAH it is MARIAH's turn. She looks at the paper with the sentence being copied and writes as she looks on.) AUSTIN: (pointing out the obvious) She's writing and looking at it at the same time! JAMESON: Take your time, you've got time. ALEX: I tried to do that, but I lost. (His handwriting was illegible.) (MRS. JONES starts talking with MRS. DANIEL quietly. MARIAH finishes her sentence and tries to get MRS. JONES' attention to verify her victory) MRS. JONES: (finally looking over) You forgot the question mark. (There had yet to have been a sentence that was a question, and MARIAH had been caught off guard. CLASS breaks out into chatter.) MRS. JONES: And that was a Mariah thing! If you had been sitting there you would have pointed it out! Taylor wins. (CLASS agrees) MARIAH: Yes, I'm human! I make mistakes! NARRATOR (MARIAH in a cunning disguise): Although, MRS. JONES always disagrees with MARIAH, the CLASS doesn't always disagree. (SCENE 0: [Because MARIAH was too lazy to change the order] of the two scenes. The CLASS is grading their homework from last night.[This too is over capitalization.] PERSON ANSWERING THE QUESTION is listing the words in the sentence that are supposed to be capitalized.) PERSON ANSWERING THE QUESTION (may we remember them next time D;): The, Henderson, High, School, Band, Patton Park. MRS. JONES: (shaking her head) I agree with all of that except for "band". JAMESON: Wait, what? MARIAH: It's being specific. It said "the *Henderson* High School band", not "the high school band". You said that things that were specified had to be capitalized. (Random CLASS members break out in agreement.) MRS. JONES:(glossing things over so that she'll look good) No, I said that applied when talking about the school, I never said anything about the band. (CLASS groans because most of them got it wrong.) NARRATOR: (MARIAH in a cunning disguise.): So there you have it. The tale of the immature student English teacher and the class disruption, who still gets straight A+'s in English and writes like no other.
