students who rock

I collected a shitload of writing papers to grade this weekend and spent many minutes laughing out loud on my couch. Here are some gems:

What did you learn this week? What do you want to learn next week?

This week I learned about animals. Next week I want to learn about guns.

Describe your family.

My mom is nice. My brother Miguel is in 4th grade. My little brother likes to bite people.

What would you say if an alien came to your classroom?

“Welcome, peace my alien friends. What can we do for you."

If an alien came to our classroom I will tell the alien to dance and to give me a lion but a nice one.
