Things my students say 1
January 22nd, 2010 by melisI’m going to start a new blogging idea tonight. I work with kids from age 5 to about 11 years old, and they are soooo funny. I live my job so much because even in the days where I teach the same exact lesson as the day before the students make the class periods a completely different experience.
My cousin, hi Tara, asked me over Twitter, if my students said anything funny/cute lately so I thought I’d share things like that with a blog topic. No names included and only the things I deem as too amazing to not share will be used lol
I’ll label these as tmss in the blog. There were some cute ones today
First, I had a little boy not looking at me during the story time, I was worried he was crying but I realized he was yawning. Our school doesn’t have room to have full day k classes, so this boy was part of the PM class. They came to school st 1:00 and came to library around 2:15 or so.
When I asked him what was wrong he said “I’m Was almost falling asleep…I’ve been in school FOR HOURS!!” it was too cute.
During the same class, the same boy was lifting himself up on the table and I told him he didn’t need to be any taller, as he was the tallest in the class already.
Little girl: “No, that’s you! You are the tallest in the class, Miss Chrusch!”
…that’s abnormal as I have second and third graders my height and talker and it made my day! But then I noticed that this was only true because my helper mom wasn’t standing up at the time.

Cute, cute! I was reading 10 Little Rubber Ducks in storytime last week and asking the kids if they knew the names of the various animals. When we got to a picture of a seal, one of the kids shouted out “That’s a MANATEE!” Not quite, but I was impressed that a 3-year-old knew the word “manatee”!
