Signing Year Books

As I wrap up the school year and finish my student teaching I have been asked by several students to sign their year book. It turns out you can add signing year books to the list of things that I have not gotten better at since high school. This list includes such items as dancing, making my bed every morning, and not hitting snooze on my alarm clock.

I have looked up many posts for recommendations on what a teacher should write in a year book and none of them helped. Instead, when I get my own classroom, I think I will create a stamp that I can use. Something like this:

-------------------------------------
|      -- Official Notice --        |
| Let it be known to all and sundry |
| that on this date Mr. Hunter did  |
| NOT sign this year book.          |
|                                   |
| initial: _______   date: _______  |
