I had a sub. teacher in 8th grade who disliked my presence in the classroom. I assume she chose to make an example out of me by punishing me for basically everything I did to prove that she meant "buisness". The first few of times that she made me write out sentences, stare at a wall etc. I did deserve it, I was making jokes in the middle of her class and being the class clown. After awhile though, I started raising my hand when she subbed and trying to act better(partly due to frequent hand cramps from writing sentences), but she would still find things to yell at me for, one of the things she made me write out sentences for was telling a girl I liked her hair.(not during class either) So I deliberately started doing things to get her mad, which was wrong & I shouldn't of. But that was because I thought I wouldn't see her again and was getting in trouble anyways, now I found out she'll be subbing at my highschool anything I can do to start a clean slate and maybe get on her good side?

I would recommend talking to her. If you approach her and say what you have said above and tell her that you would like to try to start over again I think she would be willing to give you a chance. By admitting that you were wrong before it will signal that you acknowledge that you have made a mistake. Everyone likes it when someone who has given them a hard time admits that it was wrong to have done so. Be careful though, she will test you at first to see if you are going to keep your word. Keep your temper and I bet you will get along much better in the long run. Good luck.

You have to tell her up front that you admit to being a poop but you honestly want to start with a clean slate. That's the ONLY way she'll believe you. Oh, and talk to her one on one OR with the principal present so he/she knows what may be going on in class in case she DOES start getting on your case when you're being sincere.

This is the 2nd time you asked this question...yes, I'm a teacher, and my answer is over on the other question...you need to open up some communication with this sub, they are people too, and would appreciate your talking/writing to her.
