How to Not Get Caught Chewing Gum at School

Store your gum where no one can see it. A good place would be your jacket pocket.

Secretly open your gum, under your desk or in your pocket.

Fold your gum to make it smaller, therefore less visible.

A technique you can use to put the gum in your mouth is to bend down under your desk and pretend to get something out of your backpack, and just put in the gum then. Or you can pretend put your hand over your mouth that contains the gum and just put it in.

Start by chewing very slowly!

Don't chew obnoxiously just to show off to your classmates that you have gum. Do it very quietly, and try not to open your mouth at all.

If you have to talk, stick the gum on the roof of your mouth or beneath your tongue and talk as clearly as you can.

Try to avoid talking face to face with your teacher.

If for some reason it starts to taste bad and you want to throw it out, do the backpack trick mentioned above. This time though, just stick your gum in a Post-It or piece of paper and throw the paper away.
