In 4th grade, I did that, and some boy named Tony went up to my coat and took both my V2 and my sister's V2; I can't believe I didn't notice. I was actually crying about it. I got mine back, but somehow the teacher didn't find my sister's.
Though my sister isn't interested in Tamagotchis anymore.
EDIT:
Whoops, didn't add the rest.
My teachers have NEVER caught me with it. The only person that caught me was the principal, he only give me a warning and whacked me with a folder with a little smile. (LOL! It was only a little tap, don't protest on him, I think he's nice for a strict guy who's yelling at everyone most of the time).
In 1st period, I don't play with my Tamagotchi really. My teacher doesn't care though. He's pretty strict though; that's why I don't play it in there.
In 2nd period, my teacher doesn't care one bit, even when I'm playing with it. I leave it on the desk so I can watch it when I doing work. She also allows MP3 players, so I guess that's why.
In 3rd period, the teacher takes away ANY toy. Luckily, I sit in the back table where all the students are blocking the table (Yes tables, this is Science class).
In 4th/5th period (Both periods are in the class), I sit in the front of the class (vision problems). The teacher sits right in front of me too. I play with it most of the time in here too. I put my arms in my sweater, and play in my sweater. But I have to lean back a little bit so she won't get as suspicious.
In 6th period, the teacher is in her office most of the time, so I play when she's in there or when we're watching a movie.
In 7th period, I can't take care of it, because it's P.E. What am I gonna do, hold it the whole time? I keep my backpack in the lockers.
I have an after school program (
). Sometimes I play in the classroom. During the enrichment (The fun stuff), I can play with them without the teaching giving a care. Sometimes when we're at the black top, my Tamagotchi buddy and I would play with them. However, he doesn't want to admit he has a Tamagotchi; he says he has a "reputation" to keep. So whenever other people see him with his Tamagotchi, he pretends he has no idea what it is and pretends it's mine.
Some tricks to try:
-Play in your sweater
-Place some fancy charms on the keyring. Your teacher might think it's just some decoration. Don't forget keys!
