Feeding the Ducks

Student:  Have you ever fed ducks?
Me: Yeah, I have actually.
Student:  That means you've killed them.
Me: What?
Student:  Yeah, one the speeches, during toastmasters today was about how when you feed ducks, they get really fat, their stomachs can't handle the bread or crackers, and they die.
Me:  Oh....well I won't do it anymore!
Student:  Don't worry, you didn't know.  You're still going to Heaven.

Whew!   :-)

Getting a Girlfriend

Sometimes I like to just sit back and listen to these kids talk to each other. 

Student #1:  I spent some time with my girlfriend this weekend.
Student # 2:  You got a girlfriend?
Student #1:  Yeah, but she doesn't go to this school.  We email and talk on the phone.
Student #2:  That's awesome that you finally got a girlfriend!   

They give each other a high five, lol! 

Student #2:  Yeah, I might be getting one too.
Student # 1:  That's really great!  

These kids are too cute for words sometimes!

Brutally Honest

One of my students always talks to me about my handwriting.  Mainly that she likes it, wants me to write on the board, write her a letter, etc..  

Today, after I taught her class, she had some constructive criticism for me. 

Student:  Ms. Sabio, your handwriting was not good news today.
Me:  What do you mean not good news?
Student:  It was just ok.  You could do better next time. 

She's harsh!  lol
