Kindergarten to Grade One
Posted: Tue Jun 17, 2008 10:34 am
A group of kindergartners were trying very hard to become accustomed
to the first grade. The biggest hurdle they faced was that the teacher
insisted on NO baby talk!
"You need to use 'Big People' words," she was always reminding them.
She asked Chris what he had done over the weekend?
"I went to visit my Nana."
"No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use 'Big People' words!"
She then asked Mitchell what he had done.
"I took a ride on a choo-choo."
She said "No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. You must remember to use
'Big People' words."
She then asked little Johnny what he had done.
"I read a book," he replied.
"That's WONDERFUL!" the teacher said. "What book did you read?"
Johnny thought real hard about it, then puffed out his chest with great
pride, and said, "Winnie the SH..T."
