More "Questions"

I love this little guy:

"I have two questions:

I like music and

I lost two teeth!"

One of these days I'll fill him in on the fact that those aren't questions, but as long as it keeps being cute....hey, I'm the music teacher, not the grammar teacher!

You're Really Lucky

One of my second graders walked by my desk on Friday and saw a picture of Justin and I:

Jonah: Who is that? A friend?

Me: That's my husband

Jonah: Oh. He's handsome.

Me: (chuckling) I think so too!

Jonah: You're really lucky.

Me: You're right, I AM really lucky.

How sweet is that? I tell you what, kids are pretty cool.

More Kindergarten Gems

"Mrs. Clark I have 3 questions:

I like your shoes,

I like your shirt,

My eye hurts."


I didn't hear any questions but the compliments are appreciated!

Kindergarten Quotes

On his way in from recess one of my kindergarteners saw me and said:

"Mrs. Clark, do mime's wear hats?"


On his way out the door from music class one little boy was looking at me like he wanted to say something and then finally as he was passing through the door he whispered:

"I like you!"

So cute.

Quotes of the Day:

The first one needs some explanation. Three of my kindergarten girls came in asking if they could perform a song for the class.

Me: "Is it appropriate?"

Girls: (with serious looks on their faces) No!

Me: Not INappropriate. Is it APPropriate?

Girls: (still looking serious) NO!

They obviously thought I meant INappropriate. It ended up being a song about peanut butter...


Another kindergarten class:

Kindergarten Girl: Mrs Clark, guess what?

Me: What?

Kindergarten Girl: Michael Jackson held me when I was a baby!


Okaaaayyy.......

Jose Hydrant and the Smoke Detector

Ok so it didn't take much work to find the video!
Fast forward to the two minute mark to see Jose Hydrant. Shortly after his appearance is the creepy smoke detector- voice-over by none other than Gilbert Gottfried.

Overheard in the teacher's lounge...

This was just too funny- I couldn't believe I was hearing it. The names have been changed to protect the innocent.

Barbara: How was the fire safety presentation assembly?

Susan: Did anyone else notice that the firefighters weren't very cute this year?

Andrea: Usually they're such foxes!

Erica: I thought the video was a little scary- if my smoke detector had a face like that and started talking I would punch it!

Susan: And racist! Seriously! A fire hydrant named Jose?! That video was obviously racist!

Erica: Oh yeah! When that fire hydrant opened his mouth I was like, that's offensive to the hispanic race!


.....All I know is, I NEED to see this video.
