Student Drawings Vol. 14

I have a pretty lengthy post to end the school year. This means there won’t be another post for a few months. Over the summer I’m going to try to post a couple non-drawing related posts. I would like to start blogging about teaching ideas and teaching-related material so we’ll see if that actually happens.

Here we go.

Here is a series of animal related pictures.

My favorite part about the zombie unicorn is that instead of saying “neigh” or “brains”, he says “nains!”

photo 1 (3) photo 2 (4) I wonder if this student meant to put “Senor Hoppy”.

photo 4 (4)photo 5 (4)photo 3 (1) I’m not sure why being a zombie means the panda should have stiches for eyebrows but what do I know? I do like that it had a hand that has been erased/eaten. And it’s missing a chunk from its tail.

photo 3 (3) photo 3 Couple of narwhals. This student drew several narwhals on all of her papers for a couple of weeks.

photo 4 (3)

Truly the saddest dog in the world. I would like to meet the monster who put ice cream on his head.

photo 5 (2)I had a couple of students last year who called me a bear and made bear jokes for the whole year. They would change my computer wallpaper to a picture of a different bear every day. Well one of the students kept it up this year and came up with the name Bearen. So this is me as a bear (much happier than as a human I guess).

photo 5 What’s that you say? Draw a picture? Ok. Well I could draw anything but I think I’ll make it a man being eaten alive by a couple of wolves. That would be completely appropriate for my paper.

Here is a random assortment of pictures.

photo (1) I think if Hitler looked like this, history would have been very different. I mean, seriously, who would listen to a guy that looked like this.

photo 1 (1) What I need to change next school year: Not only profess by love for zombies but also explain how dangerous they are and how they need to be destroyed. Clearly this student doesn’t understand that if he wants one as a pet.

photo 1 (4) A boy running from a zombie. No need to run kid, the zombie has one foot; he is about to fall over.

photo 1 I feel like I’ve seen this before but either way, it is hilarious.

photo 1 Now if Hitler looked like this, people would have to listen to him because he is clearly crazy.

photo 2 (1)Ripping out your heart and giving it to your lover. True love.

photo 2 (2) Weird.

photo 2 (3) 

One of my classroom rules is no singing. There was a one week span in which I had to crack down on singing more than ever because of this song. Oh, how I hate it. Though, I have to admit (somewhat reluctantly) that when they performed it on Glee, it was actually…ahem…kind of good.

photo 2 (5) A snowman? In the middle of May? Seriously?

photo 2 10 eyes should be good right? 10? Oh yeah, and a cane. This alien will have a pimp hat and cane.

photo 3 (2)I don’t smile very often and yet all the pictures of me are smiling. Students clearly don’t know how to draw.

photo 4 (1) Pure genius. I wish I had thought of this. It brings me back to my days of Latin class.

photo 4 (2) Another zombie from my zombie-a-month calendar. Each month gets better and better.

photo 5 (1) 

Maybe if you had spelled it correctly, you would have received credit.

photo 5 (3) Now this is a situation in which I would genuinely smile for a second.

photo 1 (2) A student brought this to me off of the smash cart in the ceramics room. This is an awesome paperweight.

 

The following is a piece of a continued conversation written on the bathroom wall. Warning: may contain offensive language.

photo 2 (4) “Write Gay peoples Names”

photo 3 “The guy who wrote this”

“the fag who wrote this”

How clever gentlemen.

photo 4 (3) “The fag who wrote this!!!”

Seriously? Right after someone wrote the same thing? That’s just lazy. I do appreciate the triple exclamation point (!!!) as a way to emphasize your meaning.

“Suck on these chinese nuts!”

This is like a child jumping into the middle of a conversation. This doesn’t make any sense. On the other hand, if this guy is really looking for someone to suck on his nuts, a list of gay people is the right place to go.

photo 5 “This guy is asking other guys to suck his nuts?!……FAG”

Nice observation. Thanks for pointing that out.

 

School pranks:

photo 3 (5)

I pulled a prank on my colleague by changing his water cooler into an aquarium. I put in a beta fish (which you can kind of see) and some fake plants. The best part is that he didn’t realize I cut a hole in the top to put everything in. So when he wanted to get it out, he flipped the jug very quickly and then water poured out the hole.

photo 3 (4)This was his retaliation. Well done, I must say. I’ll have to think of something good for next year.

 

Lastly, I have a series of photos from last year that I found in my desk. Drawings are self-explanatory and don’t really need clever captions.

Warning: photos contain graphic, albeit hilarious, drawings of penises a la Superbad.

photo 1 (5) “A Day at the Movies”

photo 2 (6) photo 3 (6) “Tug of War”

photo 4 (5) “Home Alone”

photo 5 (5) photo

That’s all I have for this year. Have a great summer and hopefully I’ll be back to post in the next month or so.
