Korean Job Discussion Forums

[Tiny_Tibbo]

today while i was having my daily discussion with my kindergarten class about their latest injuries......i said to one little girl "oh you banged your finger?"...lol....and this other little dude said in a full sentence and clear as day..(which i rarely hear)....."I banged my Grandma"

Huh. Kids grow up so fast these days....

... and kids do the darnest things, like my student today pulling out his pecker and waggling it around to the amusement of the boys next to him. I should mention that he is 7 Korean age, that I yelled at him to put it away and that I tried to conduct class in the usual manner afterwards despite being grossed out not that he listened and did it a couple more times...

one student was explaining to me how he was fighting with his friend, and said "he fisted me" and "fingered me" (punched me and gave me the finger) i swear i almost cracked a rib holding back the giggles.

One of my favourites was doing irregular verb tenses with a group of middle schoolers. I'd call out the present and have them call out the past:

Go! ... went!
Eat! ... ate!
Grow! ... grew!
Shut! ... there was a brief pause, and then two girls spontaneously yelled out 'sh*t!'.

Sorry but I'll take fun, somewhat grown-up kids over kindie any day.

And kids on the witness stand say the darnest things, too.

Q: And lastly, Gary, all your responses must be oral, ok? What school did you go to?
A: Oral.
Q: How old are you?
A: Oral.
------------
Q: Could you see him from where you were standing?
A: I could see his head.
Q: And where was his head at that time?
A: Just above his shoulders.
------------
Sometimes prosecutors get in on the fun:

Q: You said the stairs went down to the basement.
A: Yes.
Q: And these stairs, did they also go up?
-------------
Q: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?
A: No.
Q: Did you check for blood pressure?
A: No.
Q: Did you check for breathing?
A: No.
Q: So, then it's possible that the patient was still alive when you began the autopsy?
A: No.
Q: How can you be so sure, Doctor?
A: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.
Q: But could the patient still have been alive nevertheless?
A: (without missing a beat) It's possible that he could have been alive and practising law somewhere.

These are all actual questions asked by barristers during trials.

I was thrown today when we were talking about what movies we like to watch.

A sweet little 12year old girl proudly stood up and answered, "erotic". Suffice to say we moved SWIFTLY on.

I made my students create original questions to ask me. One teenage girls said:

Oh! Teacher, teacher, do you like p*ssy!?



What??

Do you like President P*ssy?

Oooohhh... President Bush.. Here, let me show you how to spell and pronounce that!

I was explaining the word stray to my Grade 1 kids. (they did the 2 year Kindy thing so they are pretty talkative) I explained it as an animal without a home. Though, i left out the animal part. One boy pipes up "Teacher! I see stray people all the time!!!" i had a good laugh at that one.. logical connection when you think of it... kids..

My last class of the day is usually a waste of time. Just one 12 year old boy for 25 minutes. I just get him to read out of his workbook while I try to stay awake. Anyway one day the topic of the page was a trip to the zoo. There was a teacher taking her students on a tour. They stopped at the mokey cage and.....

"Look at the zookeeper spank his monkey."

So much for a quite class. I was in tears I was laughing so hard.
