I have this teacher. She has been my teacher since 1st grade. She WAS really nice and people like her. Seventh grade is probably considered the hardest grade in my school and it is the grade that any problems might occur. So one day in 7th grade she was giving instructions and my friend, Katie, poked me. I poked her back and then my motherly other friend shot us a look and we stopped. We then got in trouble. We asked her nicely for an explanation, but she thought we were sassing her. Our school guidance counselor found our and we had to apologize. Then she continued by calling our parents, insulting our athletic abilities, disrespecting our personal confidentiality, and gossiping with all the teachers about it. This year (8th grade) she still has it out for my friend and me. We have gym every other day. I happen to like Spanish, the opposite class. I was then pulled into the principal's office. I'm not really sure why. Should I go back into her office, what should I do?

I would suspect there is more to the story than you were able to tell, because what you say here is very confusing. You are at an age where it is very hard to focus or care about school. Your teacher has probably noticed a change in you. It is not your teacher's job to be "nice." It will alway seem as though someone is nice if you are doing well and there is no conflict. Now, you are probably not doing so well (behavior or academics) and she is trying to get you back on track. So the above advice about asking for some time to talk to her and find out what is on her mind is good. Explain that you want to be successful. You need to be humble about this, not whiny. Is it possible she is having personal issues? Yes, and if that is true, your talk with her (please do not "confront" her) will help her see what is going on.

Your story is a little confusing but you could try talking to your teacher again. It will take some courage. But ask her very politely for some time to talk and see if you can both apologize again for your acting up behaviour last year, and then tell her your goal is to be successful in school this year, and you'd like her advice and help. Tell her that you know that teachers have a lot of challenges, but you'd like her assistance in meeting the challenges of being a great student in school. Bring a list of what you think the things you ought to work on in your own behavior and life are, and ask her if she thinks you've left things out that you should focus on. Maybe by making her see that you value her opinion (and then you have to act on it) and that you will learn frm her you can get her to change HER behavior.

Just appologize. You don't have to have done something wrong to say you are sorry. She obviously isn't going to let this die, but write her a note explaining you are sorry for what ever you have done, and that you value her opinion and wish to make things right or something. Then give her a treat with the note- just leave it in the office. If you are nice to her- she will eventually be nice back

Try to talk to your teacher. You should try to explain her what is going on and how you feel about it. Talk to her when nobdy else is in the classroom. You shouldn't use violence or lie to get things straight. If she still doesn't listen to you then tell your parents and all of you should have a meeting together and then the teacher sould listen.
