Today as I was teaching something made me think of the funniest conversation I had with a kindergarten last year. I was subbing for his class and he looooved to talk. And I have to admit, I loved to talk with him too. The things that came out of his mouth were some of the most clever, imaginative things I have ever heard. For example,
Little guy: " Do you have your own class?"
Me: "Yes I do. But I teach grown ups how to speak English because they only know how to speak Spanish."
Little guy: "Do they sit in big chairs?"
Me: "Yep, their chairs are as big as your teacher's chair."
I can tell his wheels are turning and then he gestures and seriously says,
" So, do you open their mouths like this and puuuuull the Spanish out and then puuuush the English in? "'
Me: "Well, no, it's a little more complicated than that, but that is a very creative idea!"
Little guy: "Oh. "
Oh my gosh, I just wanted to gobble him up! I miss those little kindergarten classes sometimes, though I really don't think I could do it everyday. Anyway, do any of you have a favorite conversation that you can think of? I'd love to hear 'em. Jen
