Oh no!

See if you can figure out what she's REALLY trying to say...

Comment below if you think you know!

Quote of the Day from Third Grade, October 9

"Ms. Kirch, is this the first day that you haven't worn a dress?"

Glad to hear that they're really remembering the important things.


And at dismissal:
"I'm really nauseous that my grandpa won't remember to pick me up from Spanish Chorus."

Me: NAUSEOUS??? ... "Oh, you mean you're really NERVOUS that he won't remember?"

"Yeah"

Phew, no need for a trash can on this one.  Crisis averted.

Gifts from Students

My favorite second grade teacher got a nice present from a student today.

A bottle opener.  That says Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum.  ON A NECKLACE.

We could not make this stuff up.

Third Graders Aren't as Funny as Kindergarteners

Sorry for the complete lack of posts this year; it's just that my students tend to say more sensible things than kindergarteners do!  There are a few exceptions, and I will definitely be posting them here.  Until next time...

Me: "Uhh, just so you guys know, we have a mouse in our classroom somewhere.  His name is Juan.  I'm going to try to catch him at some point.  Don't worry, he's more scared of you than you are of him."
Student: "Ms. Kirch, did YOU name him Juan?"

No kid.  The mouse told me his name was Juan.  YES I named him!
