My Kindergarteners

While putting a (miniature) pot on his head, Matthew said: "Hey! I look like Christopher Columbus!"
The other students in his group just stared at him until one finally said: "You mean Johnny Appleseed??"
Quoting the principal: "She said, 'Read, read, read'... so I'm gonna READ!"

And finally, Nolan sparked a debate with me today when I wouldn't let him use the white boards and markers because he hadn't been following directions. He said, "You know what? This is kind of like what the people did to Martin Luther King!" I proceeded to explain to him that MLK was against discrimination based on what people looked like. He said, "Yeah, this is the same thing!" I finally convinced him that, no, the fact that I expect him to follow school rules such as keeping his hands to himself is not the same thing as segregation. He simply said, "Ohhhhhhhhhh...". TGIF.
