Student: ::Raises hand in a panic:: TEACHER!!!
Me: Yes?
Student: Marcus said a BAD WORD!
Me: ::thinking uh oh, here it comes:: ::pulls student aside:: What did Marcus say to you, hun?
Student: He said the G WORD!
Student: He said ::whispers:: Jesus!
If kids are thinking Jesus is a bad word...we are doomed.
*One of my favorite moments teaching first grade*
I was just thinking the other day when they phased out saying the Lord's prayer after singing the national anthem every morning in school. I get why they did it, but a dialogue was always encouraged about different backgrounds. My how things have changed:) (I'm so old).xx
