Some people wonder what really goes on during teacher preparation periods. Today I spent an hour trying to get a bird out of a classroom that came in through the window. My neighbors class was totally freaked out, so they moved to the classroom next door which was empty for the period.
I spend the whole hour trying to use a broom to get the bird to fly out one of the windows. The ceiling is about 11 feet high, and the bird would never come down more than a foot. Unfortunately the windows don’t go up that high.
Once I gave up, the bird was still in the room for the next hour. I went back in after school and it was gone.
Although the poor bird (very small finch) was quite scared and tired, it never pooped, unless there is some up on the light fixtures that we haven’t seen (and never will).
