POLITICALLY CORRECT

Im fed up with politcal correctness! Ever wonder what political correctness does to our kids? Heres your chance to find out...easily offended leave you shit at the door!

Today Santa Clause came to school to take pictures with my students. So they were all extremly excited and preoccupied with DA MAN! Anway, picture it: the trouble maker, never listens, always tattles JUST to get someone else in trouble for a change, musters up in the MOST whiny, annoying "tattle-tale" voice you could EVER imagine,

"Ms. Franklin, Cassie said Santa is FAT!"

To conclude his statement, he looked at me with that look. You know the one. The one that says, "Go get her! FUSS HER GOOD"

I simply looked at him and said sternly,

"Santa IS fat."

Then we all had a good chuckle...see they can handle things just fine. :)

STUDY BREAK

Mark Twain once said, "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education."

To that I say FUCKIN 'A!! And I'm a teacher...

So I warned you to expect the random on this blog. I intend to randomly post utterly quotable quotes from MY STUDENTS.

Let me set the scene. We could be in class, in transition from point A to point B, sitting quietly for a clearly defined purpose, deep in thought about the theme of the week, or sharing our writing activities, when out of the blue, out of left field, with no rhyme or reason comes the thing that was SO IMPORTANT that everything had to be interrupted, pushed to the side, neglected, thrown out the window because...

"Ms. Franklin, my Uncle Ronnie was Mr. America."

More STUDY BREAKS to come...
