Funny Sayings About Teachers and School – Little Johnny Jokes

Keep the school tidy; throw your rubbish out of the windows.

Our teacher’s a peach; she’s got a heart of stone!

Our teacher’s a treasure; we wonder where she was dug up!

Our geography teacher is so bad he got lost showing some parents around the school.

I like teachers when they’re at home!

Don’t be late for school in the morning; stay in bed until the afternoon.

Teacher is an anagram of cheater.

My teacher used to be a werewolf; but she’s howl right now.

The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain; but over here it always falls on the school holidays!

I’m teacher’s pet; she can’t afford a dog.

Teachers are very special; they’re in a class of their own.

A bird in the hand – can make a terrible mess.

Little Johnny: I didn’t write that stuff. I can’t even read yet!

Little Johnny and Maps – Back at School

The teacher of the earth science class was lecturing on map reading.

After explaining about latitude, longitude, degrees and minutes the teacher asked, “Suppose I asked you to meet me for lunch at 23 degrees, 4 minutes north latitude and 45 degrees, 15 minutes east longitude…?”

After a confused silence, Little Johnny volunteered, “I guess you’d be eating alone.”

How does physics save lives? Back to School Joke

One day our professor was discussing a particularly complicated concept. A pre-med student rudely interrupted to ask, “Why do we have to learn this pointless information”

“To save lives.” the professor responded quickly and continued the lecture.

A few minutes later, the same student spoke up again. “So how does physics save lives?” he persisted.

“It keeps the ignoramuses like you out of medical school,” replied the professor.

First Day of School Poem

I’m Late For School

I got up late for school today,

And nearly missed the bus!

I hurried down the stairs,

Wolfed my toast, and caused a fuss!

I quickly threw books in my bag,

My pens, my lunch and shorts.

Grabbed my coat from out the cupboard,

Took my bat and ball for sports.

I slid across the kitchen floor,

And hopped around the cat!

Then expertly rolled over,

Jumped back up and grabbed my hat!

I belted out of our front door,

Spun round and swung it shut.

Saw the bus was waiting for me,

I felt I had time to strut!

I climbed aboard and then froze still,

And knew that things weren’t right!

My friends fell down in fits of fun,

And pointed with delight!

My face went red, I couldn’t breathe,

For in my haste I knew!

I’d forgotten to wear trousers,

Jumper, shirt, my socks and shoes!

How the Internet Started

In the beginning was the word …

A revelation with an Incredibly Big Message (IBM):

Well, you might have thought that you knew how the

Internet started,

but here’s the TRUE story ….


In ancient Israel , it came to pass that a trader by

the name of Abraham Com did take unto himself

a young wife by the name of Dot. And Dot Com

was a comely woman, broad of shoulder and

long of leg. Indeed, she was often called

Amazon Dot Com. And she said unto Abraham,

her husband: “Why dost thou travel so far from town

to town with thy goods when thou canst trade without ever

leaving thy tent?”


And Abraham did look at her – as though she were

several saddle bags short of a camel load,

but simply said: “How, dear?”

And Dot replied: “I will place drums in all the towns

and drums in between to send messages saying what

you have for sale, and they will reply telling you

who hath the best price.


And the sale can be made on the drums and

delivery made by Uriah’s Pony Stable (UPS).”


Abraham thought long and decided he would let Dot

have her way with the drums. And the drums rang

out and were an immediate success.

Abraham sold all the goods he had at the top

price, without ever  having to move from his tent.


To prevent neighbouring countries from overhearing

what the drums were saying, Dot devised a system

that only she and the drummers knew.

It was called Must Send Drum Over Sound (MSDOS),

and she also developed a language to transmit ideas

and pictures – Hebrew To The People (HTTP)


But this success did arouse envy. A man named

Maccabia did secrete himself inside Abraham’s drum

and began to siphon off some of Abraham’s business.

But he was soon discovered, arrested and prosecuted -

for insider trading. And the young men did take to

Dot Com’s trading as doth the greedy Horsefly take to

camel dung.

They were called Nomadic Ecclesiastical Rich

Dominican Sybarites, or NERDS.

And lo, the land was so feverish with joy at the new

riches and the deafening sound of drums that no one

noticed that the real riches were going to that enterprising

drum dealer, Brother William of Gates, who bought

off every drum maker in the land.


And indeed did insist on drums to be made that

would work only with Brother Gates’ drumheads and drumsticks.


And Dot did say: “Oh, Abraham, what we have

started is being taken over by others.”


And Abraham looked out over the Bay of Ezekiel, or

eBay as it came to be known. He said: “We need

a name that reflects what we are.”


And Dot replied: “Young Ambitious Hebrew Owner Operators.”

“YAHOO,”  said Abraham.

And because it was Dot’s idea, they named it YAHOO Dot Com.


Abraham’s cousin, Joshua, being the young

Gregarious Energetic Educated Kid (GEEK) that he

was, soon started using Dot’s drums to locate things

around the countryside. It soon became known as

God’s Own Official Guide to Locating Everything (GOOGLE)

And the world was all a Twitter!!!!

Back to School Jokes and Little Johnny

A teacher had been giving her second-grade students a lesson on science. She had explained about magnets and showed how they would pick up nails and other bits of iron. Now it was question time, and she asked, “My name begins with the letter ‘M’ and I pick up things. What am I?”

Little Johnny, in the back row proudly said, “You’re a mother!”

****

Little Johnny reported for a final examination that consisted of only true/false questions. He took a seat in the hall, stared at the test for five minutes, removed a coin from his pocket and started tossing the coin and marking the answer sheet. Heads meant true, tails meant false. Little Johnny finished the exam in 30 minutes, while the rest of the class was sweating it out. Suddenly, during the last few minutes, he began desperately throwing the coin and sweating profusely. The moderator, alarmed, approached Little Johnny and asked what was going on. “Well, I finished the exam in half an hour,” he said, “but I thought I ought to recheck my answers.”

The Evolution of a Math Problem – Back to School Jokes

1950:

 

A lumberjack sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of this price. What is his profit?

1960 (traditional math):

A lumberjack sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of this price, or in other words $80. What is his profit?

1970 (new math):

A lumberjack exchanges a set L of lumber for a set M of money. The cardinality of set M is 100, and each element is worth $1. Make 100 dots representing the elements of set M. The set C is a subset of set M, of cardinality 80. What is the cardinality of the set P of profits, if P is the difference set M\C?

1980 (equal opportunity math):

A lumberjack sells a truckload of wood for $100. His or her cost of production is $80, and his or her profit is $20. Your assignment: Underline the number 20.

1990 (outcome based education):

By cutting down beautiful forest trees, a lumberperson makes $20. What do you think of his way of making a living? In your group, discuss how the forest birds and squirrels feel, and write an essay about it.

1995 (entrepreneurial math):

By laying off 402 of its lumberjacks, a company improves its stock price from $80 to $100. How much capital gain per share does the CEO make by exercising his stock options at $80? Assume capital gains are no longer taxed, because this encourages investment.

1998 (motivational math):

A logging company exports its wood-finishing jobs to its Indonesian subsidiary and lays off the corresponding half of its US workers (the higher-paid half). It clear-cuts 95% of the forest, leaving the rest for the spotted owl, and lays off all its remaining US workers. It tells the workers that the spotted owl is responsible for the absence of fellable trees and lobbies Congress for exemption from the Endangered Species Act. Congress instead exempts the company from all federal regulation. What is the return on investment of the lobbying?

2008 Too upset to discuss what Bankers and Politicians did to the world this year!

2011  What is a lumberjack?

The only problem is which bank do they mean?  Northern Rock, Goldman Sachs, or even ‘The Bank of America?’

Who do we save first??

A man went to his bank manager and said: ‘I’d like to start a small business. How do I go about it?’
‘Simple,’ said the bank manager. ‘Buy a big one and wait.’
