one of my favourite parts about working at the elementary school
is when kids say really really funny things... unintentionally.
one of the things i do at the school is lead rhyming groups with grade ones.
today, i told a group that i was really impressed
with the progress that they had made since september.
one kid nodded in agreement,
"i know. because now i can rhyme anything!
like sell rhymes with..."
he paused.
"lemon!"
he was so gosh darn proud of himself,
i hated correcting him.
apparently i'm really good at teaching rhyming...
Hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
ReplyDeleteKids are so funny sometimes, it would've been so hard to correct him. Thanks for sharing this cute little story.
Oh, children. They're so silly.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is being there when something clicks for them, when something you've been working on for a long time suddenly just makes perfect sense, you know?
I love the funny things little kids say sometimes. They can make no sense at all, yet they think they are hilarious or very smart (and usually we as adults do, too!)
ReplyDeletetoo funny!!!!! gotta love what kids say!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh this is so cute....and funny :)

Haha! Sell DOES rhyme with lemon... I remember I used to try and bend words to make them rhyme when I was little...I think that's why I can't write poetry!
ReplyDeleteOh also on my favourite bloggers list there's a blogger called VodkaMom - she's an elementary teacher and always features funny anecdotes from her job - you'd love her blog!
Aw so cute it was Janis! :)
