Comparition of me and a party popper

As a teacher, I am like a party popper because just as party poppers are full of confetti, I am full of ideas. As most of us know what party poppers have inside it still surprise us when we see it, just the same way my ideas will surprise my students when they see the results or see how we are going to learn new things. My ideas might be known, but the results might surprise people. Also party poppers have different colors of confetti, I will also not have the same ideas every time, as a teacher, I will try to have different ideas to not bore my students. Party poppers are hard from the outside, but are fun from the inside, I might seem hard from the outside, but I am a fun teacher from the inside. Students just have to know me better and they will see how I am just as the party popper is, you know that when you pull the string confetti will come out, and students have to know when to “pull the string” to be able to have fun. Party poppers make people happy in many different occasions, like birthdays, or weddings. As a teacher I make students happy in different ways too, like when I tell them funny stories to make them forget their stressed day, or just to make them laugh a little. I not only will tell them stories, and I will not always make them happy but I will be there to help them be happy just as party poppers are there to help people be happy, not to make them happy if they do not want to be happy. Party poppers surprise people and as a teacher I surprise my students and make them want to come to my class every day and make them wonder what we would do at class for that day. Also party poppers entertain people when they are popped; I entertain my student s in class, so that they can pay attention to class and remember what I taught them, also I do not want my students to get bored in class.
As a teacher I am also like a party popper because party poppers are not that expensive and are available for everyone. I am also available to the students most of the times I can be available so that I can help them with problems they do not understand or just to have a chat about how they are doing with their other classes or with their lives. Just as children like party poppers for their parties, children also love me because I am a nice and good teacher that does what it can for the learning of her students. I am smooth, (soft) with students, but when I get mad I can explode, I try that the students see that they did something wrong but I do not say anything to them , I do not harm any student and I am not dangerous as the party popper is. Kids like party poppers to play in parties, I am not going to be use to play but I play with students and I make them have a good time. Party poppers are in the list of things to buy for a party because the birthday kid wants them; I am in the list of teachers that a kid remembers because of how I am with kids and how I teach them. Also they can be kept as remainders of good times a child had at a party, I am kept as a reminder in the memories of my students because of the good times they had at my class. Since confetti is very colorful, and colors make people happy, I also have colorful things in my classroom and I use colors so that they feel happy or understand the different things that I am teaching. Without teachers in a classroom, there is not a class and without party poppers there is not a good and fun party. Just as party poppers last for a long time (without being open), as a teacher, I will last long enough until I will have accomplished my goals and until I feel like I have made a difference in my students’ lives. I tell my students that the class is like a new party every day and that they have to come with lots of energy and willingness to learn. They will see that the party can be boring or fun, it just depends on the students. Last but not least, I am also like a party popper because they are little and cute.
