Just a few tidbits from today... it was a funny one:
Ms. S: Does anyone know where the first Olympics took place? I'll give you a hint- it happened a long LOOOOOOOOONG time ago....
Darling #1: China? No wait, Canada?
Ms. S: No....
Darling #2: Australia?
Ms. S: No, guys. Remember it happened a LONG TIME AGO.
Darling #3: 1986?
Um..... wow.
Here's a few from writing time. We read a book called "Never Take a Shark to the Dentist." It's very cute, and it shows pictures of animals in funny situations (dentists trying to fix a shark's teeth, a giraffe's neck blocking a movie screen, etc.). I had the kids brainstorming their own "Never Take A...." scenarios. It was quite interesting...
Ms. S: Well, why wouldn't you want to sit next to a porcupine on the subway?
Darling #1: BECAUSE IT WILL PORK YOU!!!
Yeah... porked by a porcupine. Sounds painful. Here's another...
Darling #1: Never take a hobo to...
Ms. S: I said ANIMALS! That's not an animal!
Darling #1: (mumbling) Well it looks like one....
Nice. This was the best one by far, though...
Darling #1: Never take a kangaroo to the beach.
Ms. S: Why not?
Darling #1: It can lay babies all over the beach. (Sidenote: LAY babies? And why would this take place on the beach???)
Darling #2: I think you're going to need TWO kangaroos for that one.
And that, dear friends, is where we ended writing time. Sometimes all you can do is laugh. Oy vey.
