One funny story is that a teacher was so pregnant that she couldn't see her feet anymore. One day, she was trying to find something she dropped on the floor and ended up looking like a little round ball wiggling around. The students were trying hard not to laugh out loud.
There was a boy who had a crush on his English teacher. He would secretly leave little notes with quotes from the books they were reading in the teacher's desk. One day, the teacher found one and read it out loud, thinking it was just a general note for the class. The boy turned bright red. But later, when he confessed his little secret to the teacher at the end of the year, the teacher was really touched and said it was one of the sweetest things a student had ever done for her.
Funny teacher names can be created by combining unexpected words. For example, 'Ms. Quirky Quill' combines 'quirky' which means strange or odd in an interesting way and 'quill' which gives a bit of an old - school teacher vibe. 'Mr. Jolly Jumble' is also a good one. The word 'jolly' gives the sense of being happy and 'jumble' makes it seem like the teacher's teaching style might be a bit all over the place, but in a fun way. You can also use rhyming words like 'Mr. Tick - Tock Hickock' which is just really absurd and would be perfect for a humorous story.
Once there was a substitute teacher who walked into the wrong classroom. He started teaching a completely different subject until the students told him he was in the wrong place. It was so funny seeing his confused face.
I remember a teacher who walked into class with his shirt on backwards. He didn't notice until one of the students pointed it out. He just laughed and said he was starting a new fashion trend in the classroom.
One story I read on BuzzFeed was about a teacher who accidentally sat on a whoopee cushion that a mischievous student had placed on the chair right before class. The look on the teacher's face was priceless as the whole class burst into laughter.
Once, my math teacher was so absent - minded. He walked into the wrong classroom at the beginning of the class and started teaching calculus to a group of freshmen who were supposed to have English class. It took him a good five minutes to realize his mistake when students kept looking at him strangely.
A substitute teacher once brought in a box of old - fashioned teaching aids like abacuses and slide rules. He was so excited to show them to us, thinking we'd never seen such things. But we were all just amused by how ancient these items seemed. He went on to give a whole lecture about how they used to be used in school, and his enthusiasm made it a really funny and unique experience.
I heard about a parent - teacher conference where the teacher was concerned about a child's messy handwriting. The parent just smiled and said, 'Well, you see, he's left - handed and we have three cats at home that keep running across his paper while he writes. It's a battle zone at the homework table!' This light - hearted explanation diffused the tension and made the teacher see the situation in a more humorous way.
