One of the many interesting questions my students asked me today was, "What school do you go to?" Well, in case you don't know the answer to that question, I "go" to Pine Ridge and South Side elementary schools everyday. I am teaching again for Holland Christian, but now my students are slightly younger than before. (In fact, I have the daughter of a former student...yes, I'm old.) After one day working with elementary school children I would describe them as: endearing, adaptable, inquisitive, intelligent, excitable, and happy. Here were some of my favorite comments of the day (most of which I never heard from my high schoolers):
-Me: "Where are you from if your Mexican?"
-One first grader: "China"
-(interrupting class) "Can someone tie my shoe?"
-"I speak four languages." (This is funny because he doesn't, and he couldn't remember which four.)
-(telling me as she left the room) "I like you."
And finally, one I think I have heard from a high school student or two...
-(exasperated) Why are you making us do this?!" (as I "made" them stand up and sit down repeatedly on the hottest day of the summer)
I love kids!
