Story corner

Oh, ahaha, so I just remembered this hilarious incident on Friday. All the grade 2 students have reading groups based on their reading level, and I get the 2nd highest bunch. Anyway, we were reading a book with a recipe in it, so I decided to let the students make cookies. Needless to say, the other students who are in my regular class who aren't in my reading group were quite jealous. On Friday, one of the kids in the highest group comes up to me and asks me this hypothetical question: "Miss Osakabe, if I changed reading groups into yours, could I make cookies, too?" I answered, "Well, Nikhil, you can't go DOWN reading groups. If you know how to read already, you can't unlearn it." Nikhil: "But say I could move down. If I switched into your group, could I make cookies, too?" AHAhahahahaha. It's not even like he COULD switch reading groups, but he really just wanted to know that it was a possibility, I guess. Ahahaha. It was just so FUNNY. You had to be there. Kids are stupendously funny, which is why teaching is so fun. Must remember this when I'm freaking out this week. AHahaha. Nikhil. Ha!
