When my students say something cute, I try to remember to make it my status on Facebook after. So now I have lots of fun quotes saved up. I thought you might like them. They're in order from newest to oldest. Keep in mind this is just this school year. I had more the year before, but that would involve more traveling back in Facebook history. Maybe I'll add that later.
"Ms. T, you're lucky. You don't have to work hard like we do." Maybe she's been watching the news...?
"Ms. T, I didn't say a**, she did. I told her, 'You say the first part and I'll say hole."---said by one of my little angels today. They both got to go on a little trip to the office.
Students trying to think of long o words--Student 1: "All we need to do is find one more with oe and we'll be done." Student 2: "I know! Ho Ho Ho!" I start thinking, "Uh oh." Then he continues: "Oh wait, that's o by itself, nevermind!" I know there's the innocent hoe, but my mind didn't go there.
Student: "Ms. T, why do you make us learn so much?" Me: "Because that's my job. Mr. K won't pay me if he knows I'm not teaching." Student: *starts crying* "But sometimes it's so hard when you make us learn."
I was told "You stec!" (You stink) on a note today by a student
I wonder if the icon of a disk to save on documents will ever be replaced by something more modern? Part of me hopes not because that's my childhood calling. Part of me hopes so because try explaining to your 6 year old students how to save a document without having a lesson on what that thing is.
We are reading "Arthur's Thanksgiving," in which Arthur has to direct a school play and can't find anyone to play the part of the turkey because the costume is silly. The story says, "Arthur kept thinking, 'Where can I find a turkey?'" My student: "HEB!" (a grocery store)
Me: "I am on your face and I'm spelled c-h-i-n. What am I?" Student: "Pie!"
Student to me during morning duty: "Are you hungry? You want some breakfast?" Me: "No, I'm good." Him: "In that case, would you mind if I ate? I'm starving." Apparently, he was confused slightly on who was the one in charge.
Question: "What do spiders eat?" Answer: "Incest" Ew...
Continuing the theme of "Make Ms. T feel old week": Kid, about picture on paper, "What's that?" Me, "It's called a Walkman. It's like an iPod but it's what we had when I was a kid." Them, "Oh, so it's from a long time ago, huh?"
Bus driver to my students on a field trip to the circus: "Make sure you're nice and quiet because there are lions and tigers over there, and they don't like noise." A student: "Lions and tigers?" Me: "...and bears. Oh my!" All the kids, "Huh?" "What?" "There are bears too?" I felt sad.
I had an interesting day. It involved an ER trip for a student to have the tip of his pinky re-attached.
