Might as well let him go out. He will stop disturbing the class.
Points for trying Calvin….points for trying…..
talk/write to the principal, then the superintendent, followed by the school board, and lastly the P.T.A. about that suggestion, Calvin
Calvin better not break any swings.
You don’t know how badly she wants to say yes, Calvin.
Can I stop now? My brain is full!
“Let me guess, after that we’ll turn to page 25!”
Secret to negotiating. Start with asking for something outrageous, and then negotiate your way “down” to what you really wanted in the first place.
Keep it up Calvin and you’ll probably be stuck after school.
In a bit you will be playing in the principles office for the rest of the day or until he sends you home.
Then how about just I?
It wouldn’t help Calvin’s grade, but it would help everybody else’s.
Wishful thinking
Looks like he’s about to experience an anxiety attack!! His Mom forgot to put some pills in his lunch box??
Go for it, Miss Wormwood! That sounds like the best deal you’ll get today.
Clearly Calvin hasn’t done his homework. He’s been too busy exploring the galaxy.
Calvin hears the call of the wild (playground)!
Calvin’s version of “The Art of the Deal”?
The poor principal is much too busy in that school.
“If Ned never asks, Ned never gets”
Calvin just summed up my retirement, I now can go to the playground when I want. It took me some 50 years to do so but it’s still fun.
At least Calvin was polite and not surly this time.
he’s just practicing to be a politician
But Miss Wormwood, Calvin asked so politely.
Time to head to the playground in your mind…
Scientific, and classroom anecdotes, have shown that little boys do better in the classroom if they have adequate recesses.
Miss Wormwood counting the days till retirement.
Miss Wormwood always reminds me of the main character in CS Lewis’ great ‘The Screwtape Letters’ book.
Why don’t we get recess at the office? Seriously.
But Calvin, you have all summer and weekends for that.
I have seen rocks that are smarter than this boy!
You’d think he’d have tried this by now.
You seat at the principal’s is waiting for you sir.
Hmm. I wonder if this is the inspiration for Caulfield in the Frazz strip. Probably not.
