Kid Stories...they just keep coming!

Quick disclaimer that I was not present for 2 of these stories, but I just had to share them. These kids sure to keep you on your toes!

Because I teach such little people :) I often get tapped in "the wrong spot". I was monitoring my students in the lunch room when I felt a little finger tapping me on the butt, yes right on my navy capris. I turn around to see what the little guy wanted and he holds up his ORANGE hands and shrieks "Did you know that Cheetos are the messiest food in the world?" Glance down at my rear end....Yes. They ARE the messiest food.


2 of my little ELL guys were reading with another teacher, and she was timing one on reading a story. The other little guy saw this as an opportunity to get a drink of water, which he proceeded to spill EVERYWHERE and his clothes were SOAKED--it looked like he had taken a shower! :) By now, this teacher is getting frustrated and told him to sit down, at which point he missed his chair! Now the other student bursts out laughing. The teacher, at her wits end says, "Have you two ever heard of 'Laurel and Hardy'?". They both got very serious, and the first little boy said "Yes, we know Mrs. Hardie". The other stammered "but...but....we do NOT know Laurel". hehe ;)

**Disclaimer**This does not involve my students, but it's hilarious! The same teacher mentioned above was working with a group of Kindergartners. She was introducing a new story by saying "Today we're going to read a new book called 'Yes She Did'". To which one student's immediate response was "Oh no she didn't!"
