How blessed I am to be a teacher. I truly do think that, though, this is a trying job you where you can't just "leave at work," it definately comes with its irreplaceble perks.
Below are things that I have "learned" from my classes:
1. Apparently, students saying, "Rats" after a mistake can be confused by other students as noticing a furry rodent! Result: a shriek and possibly a jump onto a chair.
2. Kermit the Frog's name orginated from the Middle Age's hermits. Result: research to prove that this is NOT the case.
3. Aesop's last name is Fables. Result: Review of lesson on possessive case apostrophes.
5. "Future," in terms of an upcoming field trip, translates to "tomorrow." Result: Student comes ready to go and is confused when we never get on the bus...
6.When you scrape you nose from sledding into a tree it hurts as bad as getting chased by a cheetah. Result: laugh on the inside.
Now, in the profound words of Porky the Pig, "That's all folks!"
So funny Jessi. I'm sure there will be many more fun things you will "learn" from your students.
