Remember that post about how I couldn't remember any of the good times when I was teaching? Well thanks to Facebook I remembered some of those good memories and the hilarious things kids say. Enjoy!
During morning meeting when we share what we did over the weekend:
Student A: My hamster died this weekend. My mom said he had a blood clock.
Me: Oh, haha. Ok, well it's blood clot, with a t. And I'm sorry your hamster died.
Student B: My aunt has a science infection.
Me: I hate those! And it's sinus, not science. Tell her we hope she feels better!
Student C: My aunt died of cancer!
Me: Ummm, I'm sorry.
Student C: She died a few years ago so it's ok.
During social studies:
Me: Does anyone know what the word "Deseret" means?
Student: Bookstore?
Me: Hahahahah no, but good guess!
During a Christmas discussion with the class sitting on the floor in front of me:
Me: Ok, take one big scoot backwards. You are making me claustrophobic.
Student A: What does claustrophobic mean?
Student B: It means you're afraid of Santa Claus.
During a book group meeting with second graders:
Student: We have a lots of Mexicans in our class and they like to talk and get in trouble.
Me: Oh.
Student: But I'm not Mexican. I'm Mormon.
Me: Oh did you know that you can be Mexican and Mormon?
Student: Really? Oh ya. We do have a temple in Mexico.

I LOVE the Santa one! And the Mormon/Mexican one. Hilarious!
Oh my goodness, I'm rolling on the floor! These are hilarious! It makes me wish that I wrote down some of the things my students said when I was teaching...but then again, maybe not -- I taught punk junior high kids. :) Anyway, thanks for sharing. I definitely needed the laugh.
Also, you're on FB? Do you want to be FB friends? :)
During Whitney's surprise birthday party at school:
Student A: Who's parents are you?
Tori and Evan: Oh. We aren't parents. I'm Mrs. Jordan's sister and this is her husband, Evan.
Student B: Which icing do you think tastes better? The pink, blue or purple?
Me: Ummm, they taste the same. Just the color is different.
Haha, hilarious!!
