The Great Cookie Sabotage

A group of us at school are participating in our own version of the Biggest Loser. My team is called the Scale Smashers and I know we're going to win. I know this because I am fiercely competitive and I can't stand to lose! In fact, I hate losing so much that I will do whatever I deem necessary to win... even if that involves sabatoge.

So begins the Great Cookie Sabatoge of '09....
Yesterday, one of my students brought in treats for her birthday. I told her that I didn't want a cookie, but wouldn't it be great if she went and offered one to Mrs. Chaves (she is on the OTHER team)... So she did and Chaves took the bait. I never thought it would be so easy. I think she swallowed the cookie whole then licked the napkin for good measure. So funny, but I should have known she wouldn't go down without a fight. Today, I got a special delivery from my "secret admirer"....(aka....Chaves). It was a coke (does that woman know my weakness or what). But you can't trick the tricker....I told my class that if they worked quietly until the end of Social Studies I would draw a name and that person would win the coke. When I had my winner I had them take a paper to Mrs. Chaves and told them to make sure that she saw them drinking the Coke. Needless to say she was none to pleased. LOL!

I call this a twofer. I got 20 minutes of peace and quiet (which is very rare in my classroom) and I got back at Chaves.
All I have to say is...BRING IT!
