The Colorful Classroom

Student: My mom has a new job!

Not me thinking that one of my students said “I like your shoes” and me responding with “thank you” only for me to quickly discover that she’d actually said “Can I touch your shoes?” when she knelt down and started petting my shoes

Art Teacher: Do you have pieces of paper in your shirt?

Student: My sister told me your lungs are cute.

Things I never thought I’d say: Friday Edition

Student: What are those bees that glow at night?

Student: *calls cowboy a “yee-haw”*

Student: *walks up to me* Hi! How are you doing!

For those days when you hear your name called ONE TOO MANY TIMES lol

Student: I need to change my pants.

Me: *sitting in classroom alone while students are at gym*

Me: *hands student turkey craft*

After six months, I am finally back in the classroom with a whole new crew of wonderful students! One of the routines in my classroom is to have the second person in line become the door holder, and we’ve been learning what it means to have that job during the first week of school.

Day 5,763 of Teaching Remotely During Quarantine

Me: *watches student wipe his nose on his pant leg*
