Don’t be jelly of my clipboard.

 I did substitute teacher training.  It told me that if I walk around with a clipboard I will look official and it will inspire students to regard me with authority.  

I thought that was the silliest thing I had read in a long while.

But- one day I decided to use a clipboard to keep track of the attendance paper- as one day it got lost in a shuffle of other papers.  

As I walked around the room with my clipboard- I felt like I was inspiring students to regard me with authority- no not really.

I did, however, feel pretty official. 

Yeah! Of course I know what I’m doing, I have a Clipboard!
