Highlights of My Day

One of my students handed me a bouquet of flower pops this morning and insisted that his mom said to give them to me because she didn't think I got enough Valentines on Tuesday. There is nothing like a pity Valentine, believe me.

While the students were sitting on the rug during math today, one boy was wiggling a bit. He lifted up one of his little butt cheeks to get the fart out, and he let it rip. Of course the kids started laughing. I kept a straight face until one boy exclaims, "man he let some flatulence," which busted me up to hear a second grader use the word flatulence.. After I started laughing, the kids became hysterical. They didn't understand. I wasn't laughing at the fart kid; I was laughing at the flatulence kid.
