These are some of the funny conversations I've had with my students over the last few month.
It's really true that kids say the darnedest things.
Student: "Do you live alone?"
Me: "Yes"
Student: "Are you sad?"
The sass though!
Student: "Did you know there is a bad word in the word dictionary?"
I shut down this question fast!
Me: "If the name is Shonda, it's not his, it's...?"
Student: "What if their trans? We don't know."
Me: "...fair, but in this case Shonda is a girl, so what pronoun do we need here?"
I know this student was just being cheeky to get out of corrections.
Me: opens my phone to check the time
Student: sees my lock screen "Is that Jack Harlow!"
Me: "No, that's my partner"
Student: "He looks like Jack Harlow!"
Me: "He does not look like Jack Harlow"
But now that I think about it, he kinda does. Definitely doesn't act like him though.
Every time I open my phone to check the time now, he yells "Jack Harlow!" and says he missed him.
Student: "You have a boyfriend?"
Me: "I do"
Student: "Does he live with you?"
Me: "No, he stills lives at home with his mom"
Other Student: "Is he a momma's boy?"
I know I shouldn't laugh, but sometimes I can't help it.
If you're a teacher, what are some funny or crazy things your students have said?
