I probably wouldn't have freaked out at that age either...I'd at least of asked for some kind of evidence.
A CONVINCING "you're gonna die act" would be to stage something with at least three other teachers in a class.
Pre-lock all the doors.
Have one stand up the front and pull a handgungun out, waving it 'round at the class, saying that they're sick of it all, and the shit they have to deal with "because of you damn kids", paying special attention to the "bullies" and troublemakers...making sure to tell at least one of them how good it's gonna be to put a hole through their head first.
The kids would probably initially react in shock, and go to the other teachers, who would then pull their guns out...
If you wanted to get more elaborate, the teachers could pre-plan this with 1-2 of the "good" kids...have them stand up to their classmates defense, and have them "shot dead"....with blanks.
Even do some hoax police calls over the PA system, all that.
Have one of the "bad" teachers have a heart and start saying about how they can't do this, have a four-way standoff between everyone with guns, "good kid #2" should make a run for the door, also get "shot", then have the teachers start shooting at eachother, making sure everyone that gets shot does so convincingly, blood packs and capsules provided for all.
Have only ONE teacher remain alive, the "good" one that had a change of heart.
Have them look around, completely shocked....and start mumbling about how it's all fucked up say how sorry they are, and shoot himself, in the chest.
When all the kids get up to run out, to find the doors are locked, have all the plahyers reveal that it was only a joke...etc.
Now THAT would be a better way to get them appreciating life.
To witness and live through a murder/hostage situation.
Of course...this would never happen, and if it did, those involed would most likely be in prison, undergoing psychological examinations...but the kids in the class will appreciate life more than ever. Mission accomplished one way or another...
Yeah yeah, ok, so I think weird things....sue me.
