the other day, we had a HW assignment in english to bring in a special item to us. i brought a locket my boyfriend gave to me before he was killed in a car accident. i was forced to share the story with the class, and i am furious that we were not warned BEFOREHAND that we had to. is the following letter a good one to send to my teacher? is the point being sent across without being rude? thank you very much for all opinions.
You may have noticed that I was notably upset in class on Thursday. I was upset and offended by the fact that you did not warn the class we would be sharing our “special items” with the entire class, and using them in an assignment that the whole class was to be involved with. It is injurious that although I did my homework and chose an item, I would have had to either share with the class, or take a detention (which I would not have been able to attend), just because of the fact I chose a very personal item and felt utterly uncomfortable. I don’t think it should have been your place to ask me further questions about my item when it was clear I did not want to share in the first place. Although I don’t really care if you fathom where I’m coming from, I hope you can. Thank you.
i would talk to my schedule counselor, but he already doesnt like me and would think im lying or something :/ i feel like i have to say something, because i can hardly be in that classroom without giving everyone daggers and wanting to jump off a cliff. while i was talking about the locket i was crying and my teacher was smiling asking me how old he was when he died, how often i wear the locket, etc. i just thought it was immoral.
thanks for all opinions so far!
i would say this to her in person -- but i definitely am a stronger writer than speaker. i can never get the words out, and i never say everything i want to. letters have worked better in the past for me, and i dont want to end up yelling at her either haha
for who said get my parents involved with the letter, i would...but they never knew about my boyfriend that died and they would question where the locket came from, etc. i just dont want it to become a mess :/
