The computer room is across the hall from my literacy office. When I am reading posts, the teacher often hears me laugh. We share stories with each other and I have been sending her slices that tickle my funny bone. Laughter is the sweetest and most potent medicine for a tough day.
Today, Abby came over and explained that she has been teaching the second graders how to use type and use the word processor. A typing exercise they did today was about spring. Wonderful. The students typed the open-ended sentence,
“In the spring, I see….” One little girl typed, “In the spring, I see ratcoons.” (Interesting image).
The other one she shared had me laughing so hard the teachers down the hall began to laugh. The second grade boy typed,
“In the spring, I see a porta potty and fresh cut grass.”

Giggle, giggle….how incredibly cute. I just saw port-a-potties on a flat bed truck this afternoon. I guess he’s on to something.
Too funny!!! I was just thinking the other day that I know it’s spring when I start seeing roadkill. Yuck! Poor little critters! They just don’t know what hits ’em (literally) when they wake up from their long winter nap.
Cute story…made me smile:)
Ha!!! Ah…the smells of springtime! 🙂
This is awesome–SO glad you shared it!
It is an open-ended sentence!! I need to laugh every day, too!
That’s great! It really is amazing what kids with come out with!
