I update very rarely, and never public, so you KNOW it's got to be good...

I assigned my students the task of writing a Shakespearean sonnet. We've been reading Shakespeare's poetry in preparation for the upcoming Macbeth unit. I wanted to test my students' poetry skills as well as their integrity: sophomores are tempted to plagiarize all too often, and I'd love to have tucked a good plagiarism story under my belt

came over here from metaquotes. The second to last one is hilarious!

The third one is my favorite.

"I wrote this poem with a demented fork"

That's got to be my favourite line. Any one who can write a poem with a demented fork is clearly some sort of genius waiting to be discovered.

Lol, I'm here from metaquotes and as a fellow teacher (although of much younger students) I can sympathise. It sometimes appears as if the students only have one brain cell, which they are sharing between them and occasionally losing. Perhaps they had lent it to an amoeba that day.
