So I started drivers Ed yesterday. I take drivers Ed with
Katherine and Heidy. I thought drivers Ed was going to be boring BUT it was
actually fun. at first Jody got there a little late but when she came she set
some rules for us and she talked to us about having our phones out that if she
catches us with our phones that she will have our phones until the last day of
class which is the day that we take our permits test and that our parents have
to come in and pick them up. when she told everybody that everybody was
surprised and my first thought was "my phone can stay in my bag the whole
day I am not taking it out so I can get it taken away" she even told us to
put our phones on silent or vibrate and we get a brake like at 5 so we can use
it then. She started talking to us about how drivers Ed goes and about the test
and how many people have failed it so far. A little later she made all of us
get up and get in one straight line and we had to get in order from youngest to
oldest by birthdays, first the year then the month and then the day. It was a
little hard at first. she said that we couldn't talk that we can only use our
fingers and that if we all get it right that she would buy us pizza Friday BUT
there was one kid that was in the wrong place and he specifically knew it was
from youngest to oldest so he ruined it for us... It was fun while it lasted but the main reason why Jody made
us do that was because when we are driving we can’t just pull down the window
and yell at the other person we have to learn how to communicate by using our
hand movements. After we had to get into a group and read a packet and then we
had to discuss it between the group and what it means. I had no idea that when
we were finished that we were going to get a quiz on it :-( we had a quiz based
on what we read, I don't like taking quizzes that's why I'm at the met duh. But
after we were done taking the quiz she then reviewed the answers with us to
know what each question meant. I had fun in drivers Ed we got out at 7 and went
home :-)
