Story Time!



We are here! Where is here you ask? Well it’s the end of the first week of school, where experienced teachers can relax, and inexperienced teachers head home and change everything so that maybe next week it’ll be better.

Honestly I have no clue what teachers do on the weekend, maybe they recount the different stories they heard. Go over the things that happened in their classes like this one.

First day of class with 1st grade:

Student: “Do you have a trash can?”

Me: “Yes I do, but you can just put it in my hand.” (I reach out my hand to the student)

Student: (as he starts to put something into my hand) “It won’t come off!” (I look down in horror to see that the student is wiping a rather large booger into my open palm)

Needless to say I let the class start working on the next task at hand and I nonchalantly walked over to my desk grabbed a tissue, wiped my hand and then covered both hands in Germex.

For that I received the award “Best First Day Story” from my coworkers and friends.

Another story, less gross:

Students: “Where do you live?”

Me: “Why do you ask?”

Students: “The closet isn’t big enough for a bed.”

Me: “Yes it is, there’s a bed in there right now.”

Students: “Can we see?!”

Me: “No, I forgot to make it this morning, so it’s really messy.”

My students now believe that I live at school. Whoops…

I teach Pre-K as well, so little little kids, note to self, don’t ask pre-k students to stand in a line when they don’t even know what a line is.

Unfortunately I do not have any pictures for you this time around, so I hope that the fun stories can suffice.
