1. i'm reading the novel "the tales of despereaux" to my class. we're only like 7 chapters in and they are HOOKED. they love it. when i asked for opinions of the book after only having read 4 chapters, one boys' response was:
"ms. i really like the book a lot. when you are reading, there is so much descriptions that it's like a moving playing in my head" he says as he closes his eyes and touches his forehead.
AH-DOR-ABLE!
2. a conversation between myself and a rather large boy in my class:
S: ms. i have very bad news. i have to tell you but you can't tell anyone ok?
ME (worried): ok s. what's wrong?
S: well ms., *whispering* i think i'm being stalked!
ME (trying not to laugh): oh really?! what makes you think that?
S: well ms., there is someone who keeps following me. and she isn't very cute. and everywhere i go ms., if i look behind me, she is there!
ME (trying REALLY hard not to laugh): oh dear! well, i'm sure that it's just a coincidence.
S: no ms.! it isn't! and do you want to know the worst part ms.? *whispers* it's a girl!
ME: *hysterical cackle out loud*
S: ms. it isn't funny! what should i do ms.?
ME: you know s, in a few years you aren't going to think that this was quite so bad! i want you to test your theory tomorrow and keep me posted ok?
S: ok ms.
ME: plus s, she's probably cute!! *more cackling*
3. sitting at my desk, well after the kids should be gone home, a young girl comes in my class.
H: ah, hi ms.
ME: hi h.
H: ah, ms., do you want to hear the poem that i made up at recess about the boys?
ME: yes, please!
H: ah, ok ms. "go east, go west, you snore like a pig!" oh. i guess that doesn't really rhyme does it?
ME: well not quite. let's try this, "go west, go east, you snore like a beast!"
H: *laughing* ok, bye ms.
