I used to love the tv show that Bill Cosby did called "Kids Say the Darndest Things." I would always find myself cracking up at what came out of those kiddos mouths' and the expressions/responses of Bill Cosby. Being that I work at an elementary school, I kind of live that tv show 5 days a week. The purpose of this page is to keep a journal of quotes that crack me up daily. I know that it is summer so I want really keep this updated until August rolls around, but I am going to start with two scenarios that stick out in my head from this past school year.
Scenario 1: I was using my phone for a timed activitiy I was doing with one of my speech groups. The group consisted of two second grade boys and two third grade boys. One of the third grade boys asked me was my phone the new iphone and I replied no that I wasn't that up to speed with my technology (even though I do have a new droid that I love). His response was "Oh, I just bought a new iphone." One of the second grade boys said "really, how much did it cost?" The third grade boy stated "$250" and the second grader said "Oh, that's easy." I just chuckled to myself and was like oh yeah that's definitely easy.
Scenario 2: One day I went to school with half a fingernail missing because I bent it back and it broke off. Yes, I know, disgusting...it gives me the willies just thinking about it again. I didn't have any bandaids at my apt so I had to go see the school nurse. Before I was able to stop by the clinic, I did therapy with one of my second graders. He was checking out my finger and he said "you can get a concussion from that." I said "you know, come to think of it, my head does kind of hurt and I am a little sleepy." He looked at me like I had two heads because how could my finger have anything to do with my head. This then lead to a medical lesson on the difference between a concussion and an infection. :)
One of my students told me he was the mastermind at Go Fish.......
I have a speech session with 2 kindergarten boys and they CRACK me up!! Today they got on a knock knock joke kick. Sad part was I think I was laughing harder at the jokes than they were and they made NO SENSE!!!! I just got tickled because they were being serious and laughing at each others jokes like they were really good!! Here are two that I can remember:
Knock, Knock
Who's there?
Pig
Pig who?
Pig rolling in the mud.
Knock, knock
Who's there?
Corn
Corn who?
Yellow corn
See...... they are horrible and make no sense but they sure were making us laugh today!!
