Last Friday was April fools... and truth be told... I was dreading it with this bunch of kids... Never the less ... I can't count how many times "Look Ms Dancy! Gulible's written on the ceiling" and perhaps the best... I opened the door for lunch and saw a sticky note taped to the outside of my door and it read.. "Ms Dancy~ be at my office at 12:25~ Trish (the api)"... #1 I knew the student's handwriting and #2 Trish wasn't even at school, she was at an API meeting...
That same student mentioned before... when I posed the question "What does a right angle look like?" she matter of factly replied "A left angle"... clever clever
A student reported another student calling everyone and everything duche bag... when I whispered to him that word wasn't in our 5th grade vocabulary he replied "Oh, I dont' know what that word means." To which I replied "Then ya probably shouldn't be using it!"
The previously mentioned student when sorting and classifying polygon's today in class- as I pointed to a regular pentagon... what does that look like to you? "An ice-cream cone"... wow!
