How To Hide A Cell Phone

gmarquardt has an K.A. in history and German from SWTSU and has over 30 years teaching experience at public high schools.

Those rotten teachers are at information technology again. Being the completely preposterous windbags that they are, they now demand that you put your telephone away during class and acquire something. No matter how many times yous explain to your teacher that your phone has been ruled a bones man correct by the Hague Court, those jumbo morons keep confiscating it! What's upward with that? Look, we all know that teachers are terrible people who accept no lives and merely desire to ruin your day. They get off on it; it'due south pretty obvious, isn't it? Why else would they constantly problems you about taking off your chapeau, getting to class on fourth dimension, completing your homework, bringing your materials, dressing appropriately, and constantly rambling on and on about "a time to come?" Yawnsville! But what really takes the cake are all these conservative downers constantly yelling at you to put away your phone. They don't understand that you lot have to post those pictures, update your status, pin, tweet nearly a fight, or cyberbully that little jerk Dave. What a agglomeration of idiots.

Withal, perhaps the trouble is that you only aren't good enough at hiding your telephone while in the classroom. Then here are the peak ten methods to hide your phone from those annoying teachers.

10. The Sleeve

Text in your hoody sleeve. This is an like shooting fish in a barrel one, and you're probably quite expert at it by now, simply simply in case, here's how it works. Only cantankerous your artillery on your desk, and pretend you are tired. You probably don't even have to pretend! Lay your head down and sideslip your telephone up into the sleeve, against your arm. At present you tin experience for the vibrations when you lot get a text and when the teacher isn't looking, just push upwardly the sleeve a little and quickly text back. That's all there is to it.

09. Body Block

Text backside a buddy. If you've got a big friend, use him for more than but protection. Utilize that big guy'south massive frame to cake your teacher's line of sight. Have a pre-arranged signal and so that when you lot demand a little privacy, he takes a large breath, blows up his breast and stretches. The more muscles he flexes and the larger he gets will keep whatever snooping instructor from catching you. By the time your teacher waddles up to your desk-bound, that bulky boy has already kept them from seeing you slip your phone back in your pocket. Done and done!

08. In The Dark

Text in your handbag or bookbag. This is a classic, and every good phone user knows it. Just continue your bag or backpack on your desk, the open up finish toward you lot. You tin residuum your phone on a book, a compact or your lipstick and proceed to read your texts the unabridged time your teacher is droning on about something or some other. Anytime a teacher calls yous out on it, all you take to exercise is pull out that book, some lipstick or some hygienic product. That volition stop them dead in their tracks. It's technically lying, but who cares, your all-time friend Suzie just got a date to prom and you had to know! Non one single thing in this course is more important than that!

07. The Imitation Read

Text behind your book. That's right. Just prop open your book anytime you lot have independent reading and update that facebook condition. Your teacher's generation used to hide comic books in their textbooks, so why can't you lot deploy the same methods? By the manner, the bigger the book the better, as a larger book tin can help hide your hand movements. Unfortunately, yous still need those thumbs of yours to text, and teachers tin recognize that twitchy motion from a mile away. But hey, nothing is more important than learning what KanyeKim just tweeted!

06. In The Hat

This method is slap-up when you have to practice some work. Similar to texting while your phone is in your backpack or a purse, this 1 is much more subtle because your hat creates a smaller, less noticeable diversion. Simply leave your had upside down on your desk and but identify your phone at the bottom of your lid. No i will exist the wiser. Information technology will appear as if you lot are listening to the teacher or working, but yous'll exist ready for that all important respond to that rant yous fabricated about that dude who looked at your girl. O no he won't!

05. At Arm's Length

Text at your side. This is widely used, so most teachers know of information technology, simply information technology's the best one for checking a facebook status because you lot can see your screen the clearest. You lot have to practice, however, as your wait ofttimes gives it away. That stretched face and squinting eye is non just alarming and ugly, simply it's a major giveaway. Exist smooth, whip out that phone and have a quick await and skid it right back into your pocket. Nobody saw a thing ... smoooooth!

04. Body Parts

Text in your lap with i leg crossed. Merely cross one leg under your desk-bound and put the phone on your lap, abroad from the ole bore. You lot've got two built in advantages here; a shelf to hold your phone past itself and a wall to block a view. Moreover, because your hands are costless most of the time, the instructor never fifty-fifty sees it. Pretty slick, Rick!

03. Who Cares?

Text right out in the open. This one works relatively well, actually. Just adopt the correct attitude, angry nevertheless nonchalant, moody and defiant. Don't hide it, just stick that phone out right on your desk-bound and showtime texting, disregarding everything that is going on effectually yous. When your teacher looks your way, bounce your caput around a little bit and start a slight sneer with a slightly trembling quiver in your upper lip. If your teacher actually has the gall to say anything, just glare at her and put your telephone away. Don't show any other emotion than complete hatred. That should terminate them directly! Jerk.

Curlicue to Continue

02. The (Not-So) Obvious

Text under the desk. It'southward a little beneath your dignity, but hey, the "ole archetype" works, especially in a crowded classroom setting. But pull that bad boy out, sideslip it under your desk-bound and text your girlfriend about this night'south date, and quickly put it away. You're washed, the text was sent, and your teacher is oblivious. L. O. Fifty.

01. The Decoy

Text using two phones. This is the plan when you realize your teachers are just too old and slow. If, for some light-headed reason, you neglect to utilize any of the above ix methods and are silly plenty to get caught, just sideslip that good phone into your pocket. When old grumpy pants who has no life demands you give up your phone, slip him that old ane that doesn't even work anymore. He's too dumb to realize what y'all did and you can go right dorsum to texting Marcus about how ugly Suzanne is. Classy!

Simply of class, if you get caught, you accept to have a quick excuse. Teachers are besides busy equally it is, then if you can brand upwards a skilful excuse, yous'll probably exist able to keep your phone for some other 24-hour interval. Here are the top 10 excuses to use when you get defenseless with your phones. Experience gratis to employ any of them; they all work perfectly fine. After using whatever one of these excuses, just crazy teachers who are obviously out to get you would take up your phone.

Skye on Baronial 04, 2020:

I got defenseless using my phone because I was sitting at the forepart desk-bound but thankfully all my math teacher did was give me a alarm. I always hide and use my phone in my backpack. If I apace need to bank check anything on information technology, I pretend like I need to get something out of my backpack.

Naomi on July 16, 2020:

I know this sounds random, only let me tell you the storie of how I got my revenge on a bully.

Back in the days of schoolhouse, a kid used to dandy me for beingness black. He'd scream, "Anybody await!" And the whole playground would turn to the states. The kid, who's proper name was Kiro, I recall, would then beat out me up in front of everyone. My friend, who was white, would tell him to stop, and I swear he'd almost kill her. One solar day, I told the teacher. We went out to recess and as soon as he put his hand on my shoulder, a pigeon flew above. SPLAT- bird poop on his head. He was such a drama king. He ran effectually and started freaking out. He slipped and landed smack in a puddle of muddy water. That wasn't the terminate of it. The poo-covered and wet Kiro went in only to receive a call from his parents. I will never forget the conversation that I and the rest of the grade overheard:

"I don't like this."

"Like what?"

"The bullying. I heard all almost it. No more than altogether presents for you lot."

Right when the telephone call concluded, he outburst into tears. Now, I am 37 and I can't stop thinking nigh Kiro without laughing. I am soooo lucky! The perfect case of instant karma!

Information technology was hard because my bullies start telling my teacher about im bringing telephone in class

Top Hat Jellyfish on June x, 2018:

If you have a good instructor and a good reason to be on your phone, you lot should simply get up to them before class, explain your situation, and they might let you multi-job. I one time had an online friend who was on the verge of committing suicide, simply I was in form, so I just explained it to my chemistry teacher and she allowed it, since it was a dire situation and he could have killed himself at any given moment. Of course, this is not something to lie well-nigh; not only is it a horrible matter to fake, but if you do it multiple times, your teacher may catch on and the consequences would exist fifty-fifty more dire than simply taking your phone abroad. But, if it's an emergency, just be up-forepart and honest near it. Yous might get some weird looks from classmates and such, but it'due south worth it if a disaster is averted.

Karlin on June 07, 2018:

I love all of them excuses I did it before and I still do information technology just its skilful that you are allowed them in higher or sixth grade.

Christopher on Baronial 07, 2017:

Here's what y'all practise if yous don't desire your teachers to fifty-fifty know you have a phone for you people in individual school. You slip it in a bra or underwear. If they cartel even endeavour to await in there/tell y'all to take your telephone you lot can report them for sexual harassment.

Marissa on June 01, 2017:

For the girls ,I sneak it into school in my bra then I get on it when the instructor leaves and in the bathroom,it might seem strange or useless but I've been doing it for several months now and nonetheless oasis't been caught
