We actually had a pretty enjoyable day on Monday. I got lots of sweet gifts and yummy treats, but the best part were the random comments:
Student: "Ms. Teacher, I don't like Valentine's Day."
Me: "Why?"
Student: "Because I feel sorry for all the single people. They're unhappy until they can find a date."
(while sorting candy hearts alphabetically)
Student: "Ms. Teacher, what does 'be true' mean?" (holds up candy heart)
Me: (trying to put it in 3rd grade terms) "Well, it means 'be yourself'!"
Student: "But Ms. Teacher, I can't be myself! If I'm myself then I'll never get the girl!"
Me: (turning away to hide chuckle)
(while playing Word-O with word wall words--except if they get 3 words in a row they call out "I love you!" instead of BINGO!)
Me: (calling out 7th or 8th word during 1st round) "Heart."
Student: (jumping up and down and waving arms in the air) "I LOVE YOU!! I LOVE YOU, MS. TEACHER!!! I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOOOOOOOUUUU!!!"
Me: (doubled over in uncontrollable laughter)
