Most overused words in the classroom..."do you wanna have an early break/lunch ?"....closely followed by "shall we finish early today ?"...

as regards the little boys room...well....sh*#house/bog/khazi/lav/loo/toilet/powderroom/relief quarters or office all suffice but never bathroom...i mean where the hell is the bath......?

"Get out your agenda books."

"If I am taking the time to write this [on the board], so should you."

"Can you say that in a more appropriate way?"

"Please tidy your chairs for the next class."

"We work until the bell. I am here to help you."

"How can your group have finished so quickly? Tell me what you did."

"My, you are a lazy bunch!"
