I really want to get better at blogging my Friday Funnies, because my students say the most HILARIOUS things! Here are several funnies from the last few weeks...
1) Me: Did you control your voice today?
Boy: I raised my hand!
Me: Yes, but you still have to wait for me to call on you...
2) Doing a 100th day project with some 3rd graders, I tell them they should draw wrinkles on their 100-year-old self-portraits.
Little girl then shouts out: My mom's butt is wrinkly!
Me: Oh my goodness! I'm SURE she doesn't want you to tell people!
Girl: Well, it is!
3) This week, all of my classes learned how Latin Americans celebrate Valentine's Day. This led to SEVERAL comical moments for Señorita!
>> Me: Now, nobody in Kindergarten is worried about that mushy, gushy love stuff, right?
Boy: I am! I have two girlfriends! TWO!
>> Me: Does anybody know what a 'romance langugage' is?
5th grade girl: Texting?
4th grade boy: Sweet talking to your lady? You know, flirting.
>> After showing a clip-art image of two old people hugging to demonstrate the Spanish word for 'hug', a 2nd grade boy realized that the next meant 'kiss' and he announces, "I better not have to see two old people kissing!"
4) I was playing Battleship with an 4th grader (possibly my favorite kid in the whole school) and I realized that she was drawing on the test shield we were using to block our boards from one another. I told her to stop a couple times, but she continued doodling. When it was time to clean up, I looked at the test shield to see what she had drawn, and there among hearts and squiggles were the words, "Your going down baby!"
5) Me: Alright, for this week's game we're playing Cuponk. You pick a "Trick Card," then do that trick to shoot the ping-pong ball into the cup.
5th grade boy: So, we're playing beer pong?
Honestly, I could post this blog every day. :)
