Why teachers really need vacations

I'm back to school tomorrow after a great spring break. I had to finish up some grading that I had put off. Now, I know that everybody doesn't get every question right but we at least hope for some effort from the kids. Here's one that put my head in my hands for some time this afternoon. The question was," Describe in detail, Hannibal's victory at Cannae in 216 BC". This is what I got from an 11th grader. Teachers all over the world struggle with this every day, so the next time someone says "It must be nice to have summers off", just tell them, "they need them"

(PS, All Hannibal's elephants were dead by this time, so no partial credit was awarded)
