Haha! These were fun to make. I teach Algebra II, which, in my humble opinion, is the most difficult math class a high schooler can take. Yes, there are higher levels of math, but Algebra II is the first time they are really asked to think "outside the box", so to speak. There is absolutely no sense in sugarcoating the fact that the class is hard. The students hate it, for the most part, so I don't try to convince them that they will feel otherwise. I often joke with them about exactly how much they hate it. (I usually start my power points off with a slide that says, "I H8 ALG2".) It softens the mood, and i think it helps them to know that I don't expect them to love the subject like I did; I just expect them to do their best. Anywho, I would hang these up in my room. They would go well with all the other signs that complain about math difficulties. (Although, upon second glance, I'd probably scrap the tarot card of the devil that says "Ms. Spicer" at the bottom. There are nudie parts showing, and I could foresee me getting into deep doo-doo over that one.)
I tutor every morning. My tutoring students are funny. They actually want to pitch in and get T-shirts, like its a club. Go figure. Anyway, when i asked them what they wanted on the shirt, they came up with, "The only thing better than Algebra II is Algebra II at 7:00 a.m." I actually have that hanging in my classroom. Confucius makes it look even better.
