Cartoon of a mom and a boy. The boy says, “I don’t get it. I prayed real hard, but I still have to go back to school?”
Yes, I’m afraid so. Many kids in the USA go back to school tomorrow, if they haven’t already. Christmas break was fun, but now it’s time to hit the books and hold out until spring.
I drew this for the August, 2012, Church of God E-Newsletter.
Cartoon of a teacher and a student with a big head. The student says, “You’re a great teacher. In fact, you almost gave me too much information.”
Cartoon of two students. One of them is shocked by a test. The other says, “They call them standardized tests becasue being terrified to take them is the standard.”
I used to think I’d be so glad to move on from school because there would be no more tests. Boy was I wrong! There are so many tests you get to take as an adult. There is no grade, just pass-fail. Even so, I’m still terrified of red pens. They give me hives!
Cartoon of two students. A boy says, “Should we abandon all hope, or keep plugging through fourth grade?”
Sometimes, it just feels like hope is a distant goal to grasp, doesn’t it? I remember hoping and praying that school would be over soon. Thirty years later, I can tell you there’s hope. Hold on. You’re break will be here before you know it.
Cartoon of two boys watching TV. One boy says,”We’ve been on summer break for five minutes. I’m bored.”
I’ll get back to the tutorial soon, but I just had to add another cartoon to the mix. It’s just now summer break for kids in my area. I remember the days when I was bored out of my skull during the first few days of summer break. After all, there were only three or four channels to watch. We have more channels today, but the kids still have to suffer with nothing good to watch on TV. Come to think of if, when WAS there something good to watch of TV?
