Conversations Overheard...

The school I work at is in an urban area. Students arrive mostly by bus, or parent transport. A couple children come by taxi. This conversation just really struck me as funny…. Intern: The word is horse. Can you use it in a sentence? First child: I don't know. Intern: Well, have you ever ridden a horse? First child: yes. Intern: When did you ride a horse? First child: Today. Intern: {surprised} TODAY?! Second child: Did you ride it to school today??

Pepper has been working with some students on the “th” sound. She asks the kids questions where the answer is a word that starts with “th”. Pepper to 1st student: “What day comes after Wednesday?” 1st student: “Thursday!” Pepper to second student: “On your hand you have 4 fingers and a……?” 2nd student: “Thumb!” Pepper to 3rd student: When you really want a drink you are……?” 3rd student: “Dehydrated!!” ☺
