50 Times Teachers Hung The Funniest Signs In Their Classrooms And They Ended Up Being Praised Online
A lot of us are still nostalgic for the good old days when the only things we’d have to worry about were getting to class on time and doing our homework. When you finish school, you might start to realize just how awesome some of your teachers were. They’re the authority figures who always put in extra effort when explaining topics to you. They’re the everyday superheroes who’d give you life advice. They’re the artistic souls who would spend hours on colorful signs and charts just to make learning more fun.
Bored Panda has collected a wide variety of informative, supportive, hilarious, and just downright awesome signs that teachers have put up in their classrooms. Scroll down to see the best of the best, and remember to upvote the pics that you liked the most.
Do we have any teachers, professors, or other educators in the crowd tonight? We’d love to hear what tips and tricks you rely on to help your students learn better. You can leave us a comment or two at the bottom of this article, dear Pandas.
Bored Panda wanted to learn more about the role of being an educator, the importance of visual aids, and the secrets to making eye-catching signs, so we reached out to Lisa McLendon from the University of Kansas. Lisa is the William Allen White Professor of Journalism and Mass Communications and the Coordinator at the Bremner Editing Center at KU.
"Visual aids, audio aids, written aids—they’re all good. Presenting information to students in more than one format can help students grasp it more quickly and easily," she told us. Scroll down for our full interview with Lisa.

Lisa from the Univesity of Kansas gave Bored Panda some very useful advice on making striking signs for education. "I’m more of a word person than a designer, so I tend to keep signs really simple:
- High contrast: Dark type/light background.
- Uncluttered: Nothing there that doesn’t need to be. Just because your program lets you add sparkles, icons, gradient backgrounds, etc. doesn’t mean you should use them.
- Clear: People read signs at a glance, so use a typeface that is easily readable (many script fonts are hard to read), a size that is large enough, and concise wording."

I noticed that. It's because us teachers spend enough time planning lessons, so a google search (or more likely Pinterest) for additional resources has to do. I don't really agree with this one though as it suggests children have to listen in awe when the teacher is talking (which I get probably isn't the intention).

I think if a student has an essential need, for example, please slow down, I can't see the board, could you provide an example, etc. it should be okay to interrupt to express those needs. As a disabled student, this sends the message that it is not permissible to do so.

Oh my how accurate🧐🧐🧐 my 10 and 5 year old children haven't been going to school since March 2020. Online classes are not as fruitful as offline classes and are super hectic for kids and me. We have managed to float, but now that school were supposed to open in the first week of this year, they didn't want to leave home. Thanks to omicron and 1lakh cases plus each day, the school closed down the day it opened. Government orders. I don't think that they will be happy about going back but once they do they will enjoy the whole school experience.
Crocodile 3 years ago
It's not that online classes are bad but the way they're used. Some teachers use it to cut corners or just give kids answers instead of making them do research. I make sure the kids have a fun easy experience while also helping them figure out answers instead of just letting them copy the answers.
Load More Replies...Bored Panda was also interested in hearing Lisa's opinion about how much educators should go beyond simply teaching the curriculum.
"The best professors engage with their students, demonstrate a love of learning, and support students in their studies and as they launch their careers. For me, this means keeping an eye out for potential internships, staying connected with my own network to keep my skills and connections fresh, writing reference letters, talking with students about career paths and their plans, and generally helping them succeed however I can. Academics have some power to shape students’ futures, but mostly it depends on the students’ own interests and efforts," she said.
Being a teacher or professor is no easy task even in the best of times. But during a global pandemic? Things are harder than ever and some academics are finding it hard to adapt to rapidly-changing rules and regulations.
Teacher Kevin, who has 20 years of experience being an educator and counselor, previously told Bored Panda that the Covid-19 lockdowns have been “very taxing” for a lot of staff. The shift from live to online teaching hasn’t been easy and the older educators especially have generally had a harder time adapting.
"The older teachers who are not technologically literate simply couldn't keep up," he said.

"Although I can use tech well, building and maintaining open lines of communication with students is surprisingly difficult. Students are less comfortable writing an e-mail for help than asking in person. Covid will dramatically change how we teach, which will include more online options moving forward,” the teacher told Bored Panda.
It’s not just visual queues and gorgeous charts that can help students learn. According to teacher Kevin, music can be a great tool as well. It helps students focus and gets them in the right mood for learning.

"New educators need empathy and emotional intelligence over topic mastery. I truly believe the best teachers are the ones who can empathize best with their students, as they can understand how a student made a mistake, and how to fix it. Students are extremely stressed, and making the work more difficult does not equal a better education. Collaborate to make reasonable goals," the educator said that support and being able to relate to students are key.

It's a good place to start. It claims itself to be "verifiable" not the Truth. Nothing is infallible.

It is a very useful tool. But like fire and screwdrivers, should be used with caution.

It's not just emotional responses that should keep you critical though. Say, for a silly example, news about a boy band visiting can be exciting to their audience. It's also about how expected something is, or how diverse the channels are. Comparing it to whatever is outside your safe bubble etc.
Jerry Mathers 3 years ago
I disagree. I have found that people seldom fact check, even their deepest held opinions, at any age. It is hard to get your head around how much bad info is out there and even the most innocent ideas, collective or individual memories, or what we take as "fact" are often wrong. And when we (and by we I mean everyone of every age) actually do bother to check, it's usually to either try and prove someone wrong or out if idle curiosity. If you doubt, try randomly fact checking 5 things you think you know a day. It will blow your mind as to how much bad info we have going around. We are truly in the misinformation age.

According to the British teachers, educators ought to try and go on the trip alone to rehearse for the real school trip. Preparation and repetition are powerful tools in an educator’s arsenal.
"If that’s not possible, then talk to someone else who's done the trip before and/or complete the route via Google street view. This then informs your plan and your 'risk assessment' which is a document that contains all of the potential hazards and problems that you could incur ranging from walking near dogs on a lead to losing a child at a train station,” Tom and Jack said.

"Planning a trip is one thing, but having backup options if things go wrong is another that requires composure—‘box breathing’ is our ‘go-to’ method if we are stressed and want to calm down. Box breathing is a practice where you breathe in for 4 seconds, hold breath for 4 seconds, breathe out for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds and repeat until your heart rate slows down," they offered advice on how to calm down if you get overwhelmed.
The teachers told Bored Panda that educators should be aware of which of their students might need more management than others before starting the trip. Some kids will naturally act out more when they find themselves in new surroundings and will challenge their teachers.

Anti-Smoking Campaign Poster I Found In My History Teacher's Classroom
Nikki Sevven 3 years ago
As a smoker who's trying really hard to quit, this kind of s**t isn't remotely helpful. Everyone applauds the recovered heroin addict and supports social services to help drug addicts. Everyone shits on the smoker. Nicotine is as addictive as heroin. Try being nicer to those of us who are doing our best.
Vicky Z 3 years ago
Thing is that it is addressed to kids that are probably trying it now to look cool! Before any addiction! It's not addressed to adults it's to show to kids that it's not cool it's the opposite! You are right that smoking is addictive and it's difficult though! I hope you manage to quit soon!!❤

I used to have a LOT of kids in my house. Rather than verbally lecture them, I used to leave little pictures and articles up around the house detailing the effects of various bad choices. In the bathroom, I had a postcard that showed a picture of clean pink lungs, versus the grey, black and ulcerated-looking lungs of smokers. Every time anyone went to the toilet, they got to look at that.
Tom and Jack advised their fellow teachers to always allocate more time to each step of the trip than they think they’ll need. What’s more, they should reach out to their coworkers for advice. Something else to keep in mind is that students’ parents gossip quite a bit, so it’s important to be diplomatic when briefing them if they’re joining the class trip.

The teacher duo also advised their fellow educators to focus on themselves. Educators have an instinct to take care of everyone else and forget their own needs, so they need reminding that they’re important, too. Getting enough sleep, remembering to pack a lunch for yourself, scheduling some time off for after the trip—these are all things that they need to remember.

He did not tell this instructor that he'd completed 2.5 years of Italian in the interim. Once a person learns a Latinate language, it is easy to pick up a second or a third.

I will never ever understand why calculus is included in the secondary school math curriculum. It's so far away from anything that you would ever use, unless you are going to specialize in some science-based careers. It's so complex and relates to nothing else in the real world that mere mortals use. I know this because I am a non-scientist who uses maths all the time for fun and knowledge, and never have I ever come across any use for calculus in my world. They should leave it for tertiary education.
J 3 years ago
I get your point, but for those few students who will need it, starting by tertiary education is too late. What they have to learn now is so complex that they need to learn calc as kids to follow the material. The alternative is career streaming kids at a young age (i.e. "hey you - 9 year old, make the most important decision of your life right now") which also has incredible problems. Instead, most schools ability stream (so the 'smart' kids learn calc whilst the others do tethered swimming with ralph) but most parents don't like that and it creates elitism. It's quite a tough decision (i.e. to teach calc or not), especially in hyper competitive environments. I think many schools take the approach of 'lets try to teach them and not worry too much if they don't get it' which is probably the best of most worlds.

Not a christian myself, but i have christian family. This seems like a very disrespectful thing to have in a classroom, especially middle or high school. Just straight up telling all those young christians that their religion is stupid? if I'm misunderstanding the quote, please let me know.

As A Maths Teacher, This Is Going Up In My Classroom Straight Away
whitney sweat 3 years ago
sin, cos, and tan are mathematical concepts. when you divide sin by cos, like in the poster, you get tan, or tan(gerine) :D. that's why it has a picture of a tangerine.

for anyone confused: in maths, sin, cos and tan are concepts and when sin is divided by cos, you get tan. the added (gerine) on the end of the sin and cos are made to be a joke as when you divide them yoh obviously get tan(gerine) hence the photo of a tangerine. hope you understood and this helped xx

Who would have thought? After all of these years I find that I'm not clinically depressed... just concussed.
Artoonist Corine 3 years ago
For the last 10 years or so schools really push the knowledge of the signs of concussion. Coaches have to take a refresher course at the start of every season. I think parents of players need this knowledge as well!
Tim Douglass 3 years ago
I probably suffered a dozen or so concussions when I was young. I have to wonder what long-term effects it has had on me.

That's a pretty shitty thing to do....people generally like to know how much time they have left to finish something so they can allocate that time accordingly.
Céline Proulx 3 years ago
I'm a teacher, and by law we have to let students know how much time they have left. Students are already so stressed out by exams, there's no need to add to that.

Another undergrad stroking their ego by abusing power over younger people. It’s such a hackneyed and inane quote. How about, “Some of you may not pass and that’s more of a reflection of my teaching abilities than it is of the system or of you as an individual student.”

This Sign On A High School Classroom Door
Reviewer UK01 3 years ago
Unacceptable. Bodies have functions, and you won't learn stuff if you're worried you're going to have a diarrhea attack. Kid at my school was sent to the office for always wanting the toilet, turns out he was diabetic and was admitted to hospital.
WilvanderHeijden 3 years ago
"I don't care if you sh!t yourself or rupture your blatter. My lessons are more important than your health." What a friendly and compassionate way to address your students. /S.
whitney sweat 3 years ago
What in the world!!! human bodies have necessary functions, like... drinking. and peeing. I have a friend who was pregnant in high school and some idiotic teacher wouldn't let her go to the bathroom, and she developed a UTI. surprise. these teachers need to get a grip.
Tamra Stiffler 3 years ago
This is a problem. I understand there will always be students who ask to leave for less than legitimate reasons, but there are many who just need to use the damn bathroom.
Fergus Corgi 3 years ago
A friend of mine left the classroom to use the bathroom even after the teacher said no. When he got back the teacher sent him to the principal. Long story short: my friend told them he knew he couldn't survive the bullying he'd get if he soiled his pants in highschool. They were sympathetic & the teacher was reprimanded.
Chloe *Leah* Pheonix 3 years ago
No. I am against this. Especially at my school when we arent allowed to use the bathrooms when transitioning from class to class. If we cant use the bathroom when transitioning and we cant use the bathrooms in class, WHAT IS THE DAMN POINT OF THE BATHROOMS
