S**t My Students Say

Ok so I have not been blogging in a while, and that is because I don't really know what to blog about.  My life includes Work, Sleep, and Work again.  I do have an AMAZING small group now where I vent about life, so after I talk to them, I don't really have much to say anymore.  BUT, I was on the phone with one of my bestites Shannon and she suggested that I blog about all of the crap that my students say, because it's Hilarious!!  So here it is, my weekly Friday post about all of the S**t my students say. 



Student A "I just moved here from Colorado"
Student B "WOW, You lived in AFRICA!  Did you see lions?"

Me "Does anyone know what GDP stands for"
a couple students pondering "Global......Data....Position...."
Student A "Gangstas Disciple People"
Me "Yes, Exactly"

Student A "Ms. R you've got swag, wanna date my cousin?  I really want y'all to get married"
Me "Sure, because every night I dream about being related to my students"
Student A "I know, wouldn't that be awesome!  I could get extra credit!"

Student A "If the United States borders the Gulf of Mexico, then why isn't it the Gulf of America?"
Student B (a mexican) "Because it borders Mexico you fool, and Mexico is better than the US"
Student A "Then why are you here?"

context: I am handing back work
Student A (african american) "Gra-ci-ous"
Me "de nada"
Student A "Huh?"
Student B (hispanic) "It means You're Welcome! If you gunna speak spanish than you might want to learn it!"


Student A "What does 'She was Lebanese mean?'  Does that mean she has a disease?"
Student B "No, that means she was from Lebanon"
Student A "Oh, Ok.  What's that?"

Sometimes I feel like I am teaching her...

Stay tuned for more next week
