Not suitable for schools (I don't think so, but you may differ), but try burping the word "bollocks". For maximum effect it has to be a looooong, loud, drawn-out kind of burp..... never fails to make me laugh tho!  |

"...throw me a bone, here, poet. How did you express to the kids the process needed to burp?"
So what I told them was, "its like snorting back a big booger without swallowing, except that instead of snorting back with your nose, do it lower in the back of your mouth. You will feel like you have a bubble in the top of your throat. Push that bubble out like you're trying to puke." |
My son thanks you as now he will learn two skills he's been pining to know.
Thanks for the instruction.
Forward to a night a few weeks into August, family sitting around the dinner table. Son burps his name with pride, Mom asked where he learned that, I get the credit. A good chuckle had by all. Daughter burps her Grade/class/student number. A good chuckle had by 3 of us, a half chuckle from Mom. My son 'snorts back a big booger' and hawks it in the sink...Two distinct chuckles, one attempt at a stern look (but really holding back a chuckle) and one expression indicating to me that perhaps I should have talked about the etiquette of burping and hawking in addition to the mechanics.
May need to set up a detailed lesson plan for this.
Thanks, poet. |
