Kids say the darndest things...

Here is the annual survey I give my students at the beginning of the year. I switched to 4th grade this year so I'm not sure the answers are quite as funny as usual but we'll give it go...

Q: What interesting places have you visited?

- My attic

- Oklahoma, Kansas City, the closet

Q: What are some places you would like to visit?

- TCU (I haven’t brainwashed them AT ALL)

Q: What are some things about which you would like to know more?

- How to write with your left hand

- Wars that made history (I'm thinking most wars made history.)

- I want to learn the Inglish and esocial studies.

- How do astronauts eat

Q: If you were given $1000, what would you do with it?

- Buy a bed, extra large

- I would buy all the silly bands in the world!

Q: If you could be a famous person, who would you be? Why?

- Lady Gaga, because I like how HE looks

- Davy Crocket (glad to see he's still getting his 10 minutes of fame)

- I like to give flowers to my girlfriend. (what?)

- Hanna Montana because she is a good person.

Q: Do you like music? What kind?

- Adam Lambert (I just didn't realize he was popular with the kiddos)

- Spanish, God, and Hanna Montana (in that order)

So far, I’m really enjoying my 4^th graders…we’ll see if I’m singing a different tune when TAKS testing roles around.

I think coonskin caps are making a comeback.
