As a teacher, I can tell you kids do this daily. Daily. And teachers have no recourse but this.

I teach this in 8th grade and there are so many ways to connect to current society. My favorite book ever

"Fahrenheit 451" is @raybradbury's internationally acclaimed novel and a classic of world literature set in a bleak, dystopian future where books are contraband and burned. Today its message is relevant than ever before. #Fahrenheit451 #F451 📕 🔥 More: spr.ly/6019374sR

Just finished teaching this as part of a dystopian unit. The kids loved it!

I have a last period that I can’t give one inch to. I have to hold them so tight, not one toe out of line, or they will lose all control. Yesterday my anxiety was high, and my chest was so tight that I had to remind myself to breathe.

The one turned in to me was too technical, and read too much like definitions. And did not match the student’s prior writing style. It was easy to pick up. Had they taken time to edit the thing, maybe it wouldn’t have been so obvious.

Congrats! 😂😐 Had my first one the other day and they really do stand out! We ran it through for plagiarism with no hits before my tech savvy colleague had a lightbulb moment. Bananas!

It’s all over in Jersey. My kids and their friends and the kids of my friends - all chess players now.
