Why I Love Saturdays
by katy boza

Saturdays are great because I don't have to work.
And work is for the birds.
Also, I get to lounge around.
And eat cookie dough.
And read good books.
Books make me happy.
So do baby dolphins.
I also like Saturdays because they go right into Sundays.
And on Sundays I do a lot of the same fun things I do on Saturdays.
Like having screwdrivers and cookie dough for dinner.
Or sitting around in my underwear watching the boob tube.
The boob tube is the best.
So are mini umbrellas.

joke

this is what is funny to kindergarteners:

Why did the stadium get hot after the game?


Because all the fans left.



Oh come on! You know you're going to use this at some point in the near future. There's no hiding from it and nothing to be ashamed of. It's a pretty darn good joke. Just admit it.

check check sibilus sibilus (however you spell that)

my posts aren't posting. So this is a test. (Quite easy if you ask me, not like those horrid long division ones we all had to endure in 3rd grade.)

Memory Lapse

So after a long MLK three day weekend (or as I like to call it: milk weekend) of being terribly sick, I returned to work and had this story waiting for me: On the previous Friday (when I was NOT work, but rather lying in my bed with a dreadful sore throat), one of my students (a first grade girl, Joyce) had returned from a month long trip in Africa. All the other students were excited about her return, and minutes before her arrival, a darling kindergartener, Charlie, asked my co teacher, "Umm...Who's Joyce?" Realizing that he was being serious, she describe Joyce to him, but only got a blank face in return. (Please keep in mind that Charlie has seen Joyce every day. Monday through Friday. Since last August.)

Finally,
Joyce arrived and the kids all welcomed her back and after the commotion died down, my co teacher brought Joyce over to Charlie and said to him, "Here she is! You remember her now, don't you, Charlie?" He looked at Joyce very carefully, shrugged, and then said, "Nope, not really." Then walked away....Just walked. Away. Had noooooooo clue as to who she was.

I love it.
