Overhead in elementary school...

[KKEGS]

Overheard in an elementary school classroom during snack time:

Kid 1: "I do not want Donald Trump to be our president anymore."

Kid 2: "Me neither. I think Trump is the worst president we've ever had."

Kid 1: "Yeah. I want the first president to be our president."

Me: "Do you mean George Washington?"

Kid 1: nods

Kid 3 pipes in: "Well he can't. 'Cause he's dead."

All of this was said very seriously by these kids. They crack me up.

4th and 5th graders waiting in the main office for early dismissal

4th:Yeah, well, we are almost adults

5th:I know, but being an adult is like super hard, right?

4th:No, not really. I mean not as hard as being in school, but you will have to do laundry on Sundays, so that's sort of hard.

I love these kids!

I had a 4th grade girl come down the other day to tell me she started her "puberty" today. She assured

me she had pads and things but just wanted me to know about her "puberty" 😊Was going to tell her teacher too.... Another little boy told me he had a "wandering" rash. I asked him where it wandered to, and he said "I dunno, it's just wandering!" I think we should collectively write a book❤️

Teacher to one of my SPED kiddos : "Are you excited to be a 4th grader?"

Kiddo: "A what?!"

Teacher: "A 4th grader. now are are a 3rd grader, next year you will be a fourth grader"

Kiddo: "That sounds AWFUL, I'll just stay a 3rd grader"
