last year marty subbed for three weeks. after the tour i asked her if there were any noticeable changes in the classroom over the last decade. she said, yes, one, there were no smartphones ten years ago.
now that she's there more often her time off is showing in other ways too. when the teachers were getting their rooms ready marty walked into the science teachers office and asked:
MARTY
does anyone have an easel-pad.
YOUNG COLLEAGUE
what's an easel-pad?
MARTY
it's a big sheet of paper you can write stuff on.
YOUNG COLLEAGUE
i don't have an easel-pad but i think i got some slates you can borrow.
