Never tell an adult this!!

Student J: "Mrs. Tull! You have gray hair!"
Me: "WHATTTT! WHERE?" Then I frantically start rubbing my hair....
Student J: "Well, turn to the side...(I turn)...Oh, I was wrong, no gray hair yet."
Me: "Please never scare me like that again!"

Miley Cyrus

While eating lunch with the kids....

In all of our get to know you activities, I have discovered (much to my dismay) that a lot of the girls in my class LOVE Justin Bieber. So I asked...

Me: "Do you like Miley Cyrus too?"
Justin Bieber lover: "No, she doesn't have good morals."
Me: "Oh, and how do you know that?"
A boy in my class who was listening in: "She's a pole dancer."
Me: "What???"
Another boy: "Well, basically a stripper."
Me: "Oh my, let's not talk about her anymore."

I'm back!

So, I took a long break from blogging because I became incredibly busy preparing my kids for all of their end of year testing....but I'm back now and ready to share some gems!

First day of school:

Student S: "We're going to have a good year this year."
Me: "Why's that?"
Student S: "We don't have any of the bad kids in our class!"

This is when I love my kids......

Student N: "Mrs. Tull, why aren't you a supermodel? Is it because you aren't tall enough?"

LOVE LOVE LOVE this kid!

Reason for Absence

So the same student that was late to see a few weeks prior had another excuse....

Student T: "Mrs. Tull? The reason I wasn't at school on Wednesday and Thursday was because my house got flooded and my shoes were wet."

Not that funny, but really....Two days off for wet shoes? I wish I could use that excuse!

hitting a girl

Student A: "You can't hit a girl. It's against the law."

School Dance

Student G: "Mrs. Tull, you gonna shake your tail feathers at the school dance?"
Me: "Yeah, I'm also gonna Shake it Like a Polaroid Picture."
