10) quotable classroom moments.
Children just have the sweetest spirits and say the silliest and most innocent things sometimes. It's often what gets me through a long day at work - looking over and eavesdropping on their conversations at lunch about their playdates, who watched TV the night before with mom and dad, and what crazy things their families do.
A few moments from this week:
"I celebrate Harmonica.....not Christmas." - a first grade girl explaining her holiday traditions to her friends at recess (Harmonica = Hanukkah)
ME: What kind of restaurants are there? (introducing a creative writing prompt)
"Well, there's fast food, chinese food, italian food, and slow food." - Jack
ME: What is slow food?
"Oh...you know. Where you go to a restaurant with a white table cloth and there is a nice fancy waiter and you have to sit and wait for the food. It comes out slow." -Jack
ME: "Like a steak house? Or a fancy restaurant?"
"Yes. You know....you have FAST food and then there's SLOW food." -Jack
"Wow. I have never had a real LIVE orange." -Kalli when she realized we were having citrus for snack todayI LOVE MY CLASS!
