I taught secondary school. I often took a smoothie for brekky in a jar. Often lovely colours due to things like green alfalfa yes, you know.
Student 1: What's that? Looks like something Shrek would drink.
Student 2: looks like something Shrek would bath in.
And etc. They never ACTUALLY wanted to know what was in it.
It seems that's the difference between primary and secondary. The secondary kids just want to tell a joke. Primary kids are actually curious for any answer. Something in the brain happens around puberty. Boys start to have two brains controlling them. I'm still not sure what goes on in girls and I've studied health science as major for four years.
Haha well girls are either bitchy or studious and rolling eyes at boys. Boys are dumb as unless they aren't, and the best thing is they don't hold grudges. Tough gig!
I used to teach middle school. I am assigned to teach two weeks at a nearby all girls high school. Wish me luck.

ACTUALLY, I love senior high - we don't call it that, but I've always taught Year 9 to 12 here, Year 12 being the equivalent of GCSE or leaving year before university. Basically kids just want to be loved and heard. Tell them you like their earrings or soemthing, but not in a creepy way, and you'll be good.
Cool. Thanks^^
