Unfortunately, a number of my students came down with an insidious ailment yesterday while I was away from my classroom on a personal day.
Sub-induced Amnesia
Evidently, it struck swiftly and hit hard. Children forgot many of the classroom protocols that have been in place since September. They couldn't remember their assigned seats or how to read the directions on the simplest of assignments. Reportedly, they even stood on their chairs and shouted to other students across the room.
And yet, when questioned about these anomalous behaviors, just 24 hours later, they only had one recollection.
The sub said we could.

It's a regular medical mystery! I feel very sorry for subs. They sure do see it all!
