This is a weird post. Hodgepodge.
Some gems from my classroom this week.
During our conversation about new studentsTeacher: We're going to have a new student tomorrow, so I want to remind you to be kind and welcoming! It's scary starting at a new school! Help her out at PE and lunch, especially.Kid 1: Yeah. Like, at my church, they say, "Don't scare away the new people!"Teacher: Yup. But be extra extra nice, cause even if she's scared, she can't leave, cause this is school.Kid #2: Yeah! cheerfully School is kind of like a learning dungeon!
During MathKid: So, estimate is kind of like a math-y word for predict?
During Reading TutoringTeacher: So read the words on your cards and sort them by suffix. Kid: Mine says cigarless.Teacher: Cigar-less? Like, without a cigar?Kid: I guess.
I took a look at the card. Sugarless.
During ScienceTeacher: What do you guys want to know about the solar system?Kid: How do people get around Neptune's rings?
Ummmm.... do I need to clarify this? Why it bothered me, that is?
Which people?Why are they there?What are they doing?Why do they have to go around the rings?
This left me very confused.
