My little spanish-speaking kid came up to me very angrily and said, "She's being funny to me!" I said, "Why is that making you angry? Being funny should make you laugh- it should make you feel happy." He responded, "She said 'ha-ha'' (in a teasing voice). "Oh, you mean she was making fun of you!" We talked with the girl about how that wasn't nice and how that made him feel upset. We have come a loooong way since the beginning of the year with him!
A couple kindergarteners, who were in my class last year, were arguing in the hall as they were walking towards me. When they got to me, one said "Ms. Minster- are you having a baby?" I said yes and the other kid said, "See, I told you." Then the first kid asked, "Is it gonna be a black baby?" I told her I was pretty sure it was going to be a white baby since I'm white and the baby's dad is white
"Mrs. McElwee? Can you come over to my house? If you come over, I'll give you chocolate ice cream!"
"Ms. McElwee. . . Does Mr. . . . Mr. . . umm Mr. McElwee! Does Mr. McElwee have any tools I can borrow this summer to build a go cart? I'll give em back when I'm done working on it."
We were doing yoga youtube video as a class and at one point, we were supposed to lay on backs and lift our hips in the air. One little guy was puffing his belly into the air instead of lifting his hips up. He noticed how big his belly looked and said, "My belly is getting so big! I think I'm gonna have a baby too!"
What day of the week is it? "OCTOBER!!!!!" (not sure where that came from)
