Third graders are sooooo funny. I taught 11th graders for 31 years. They said some pretty funny things too, especially at the end of the school year. I wish I had written some of the funny things down!
ReplyDeleteThose are a riot! I taught a multitude of grades from toddlerhood right up to 4th grade and there is nothing quite like working with kids. They can try your patience but they are great comic relief.
ReplyDeleteThese are so good! I love how you encourage to share all of their thoughts and listen to them.
ReplyDeleteThey are SASSY! I always love these posts. They must keep you so entertained!
ReplyDeleteAunt Ruth, Hammer Time - so funny!!
ReplyDeleteHaha, adorable. Love the kid with an aunt Ruth!
ReplyDeleteI very much enjoyed reading all the stuff they say! So cute!
ReplyDeleteThey are so precious at that age. You just never know what is going to come out of their mouth.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to have kids for exactly this post. Love it! =P
ReplyDeleteOMgosh
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the laughs this morning! I needed that! I'm going to send your link to my friends.
3rd and 4th graders are my favorite age, open but smart and funny, willing to say just about anything without censoring it. Sincere.

You have such smart and delightful students, Tamar! I'm sure they make you smile!
ReplyDeleteSome of these should be put in a book. What a great project to raise money for an outing.
ReplyDeleteI have to mention the Little Orphan Ms. Benjamin and I have an Aunt Ruth as beyond hilarious. That crack about I'm not trying to help the situation is so my nephew, Andy.
As always, I'm laughing so hard! I was behind on blog reading from my crazy day yesterday, but I loved starting my day with this today!! Jump rope headphones?? LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlways fun to hear what your classroom kids say, makes me laugh for sure. How do you keep a straight face?
