3rd Grade:
     Me: Don't be so dramatic, it'll be okay.
    Girl: Yah, don't be a drag queen.
    Me (a very quick correction) Drama. Drama queen.
    Girl: Or a king, a drama king.
   Me: Right, drama king.  (phew!)
Kindergartner:  You look neat!   (what K kid says neat??)
Me to Kindergartner: I like your Pumas. They are really cool. Can I wear them?
Kindergartner: No, they are too small. They are only in kid shoes. But, I think they sell human sizes at the store too.
I look at a 1st grader while I'm teaching, and he's looking at me cross eyed. I stop, look at him, and wait for him to focus. He snaps out of it when he sees I'm looking at him, as if he's not weird for doing it.
Kindergartner: Ms. Senorita Peffer, are we having our siesta today? I'm soo excited for our siesta!!  (um...no, it's a fiesta. But, I'd rather have them all come take a nap. That'd be fine too.)
