Stuff Students Say

As a teacher, you hear a lot of students compose sentences with words that create strange and/or disturbing things. Here are a few I have heard recently.

Hey John, guess what, you’re lazy and the only sport you play is P.E.

I had really good pants on yesterday.

He was drawing a very improper fraction.

Even people named Winston can be famous.

Hugs are like peanut butter that fill the cracks in the heart.

Homework is for rich kids.

I failed this test cause I don’t give a hack. Not about nothing but food, parents, and Germex.

I won $8 this morning rolling craps with a 6th grader.

I’m feeling great today and I haven’t even had an anti-depressant.

Me: Do you want me to work number 1, 2, or 3?      

Student: Both.
