I realized I have had this sitting as a draft for some time now. I wish I had been able to record more of the funny things my students said. As for now, here are a couple of laughs:
Students quiet during a quiz.
Student: Raises hand
Me: Yes?
Student: (big grin) My stomach just growled three times.
Student: You should name your baby Raul.
Me: No. I'm not going to give my baby a Spanish name when it's going to be a white kid.
Student: Oh.. then you should name your baby Gringo.
Student A: Miss! You have a little belly!
Student B: Aww, it's so cute.
Student A: Can I touch it?
Me: um... (as student A touches my baby belly)
Student B: (to student A) That's kind of weird. ... (to me) Can I touch your belly?
Class is quietly taking notes in Mr. S's class. I walk in and take a seat.
Student: Miss. This is my cow.
Student places small cow figurine on desk.
