AnonyMouse_26037 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 We've been doing Passover recently and my class are of the opinion that there was a plague of nits and a plague of splinters and yesterday they added a plague of midgets. This is partly because the version of the story I was half reading/half re-telling to them had a plague of gnats in and I explained gnats as being a bit like midges so you can see where nits and midgets come from. The splinters are because when it got to the bit about the people having disease and being covered with sores I said it was like blisters which clearly for some of them meant splinters and the plague of splinters has stuck. I'm fairly sure there are times in school when our parents think we have a plague of nits! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_26037 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 As we were navigating to an online game today my Y1s saw a picture of the Queen, Prince Phillip, Barack and Michelle Obama on the BBC home page. Clearly the royal wedding is still at the forefront of their minds and they were delighted to discover that the Queen and Prince Phillip were "King William's" granny and grandpa. However, all except one were absolutely adamant that Barack Obama was "King William's Dad!" After trying to explain about the 'President of America' I gave up when they asked "So is that lady (Michelle Obama) queen of America?!"

Guest Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 During the inspection last year one of the inspectors said to a child, "This is a nice game, do you know how to play it?" a child said "Yes, of course we can play it..." "Can you show me?" "No only 4 allowed and there's already 4!" Also, I was being observed doing a focused activity and a child came up to ask me when the "expectors" were coming. Then when I asked if anyone knew what an ambulance was one child responded, "Is it when we all go down to the hall and it's not PE and we sit in a line and there's a story with no pictures?" - If you can't guess she meant an assembly - something for the HT to think about I think! Finally, my favourite was at Christmas when we had a nativity scene and one of the children had put "Baby Jesus" somewhere, I asked the children if anyone knew where he was and one child replied with a completely straight face, "I think he's away in a manger".

AnonyMouse_6361 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 After running, tripping and falling over a brownie last week. Injuring around my left eye, chin and little fingers on my left hand. Ended up at A&E and a day off work. I went to work the day after. During snack time in nursery a child asked 'miss whats happened to your eye? then goes to poke it ouch thanks. They then said 'aww miss did that hurt?' mrs said 'please dont hurt miss, she had a fall on .... so her eye is sore.' cue several nursery children say 'ouch miss are you ok' with hugs! One child said 'miss will you tell them brownies to behave themselves.' hahahahahaha classic. Then I today in year 1 the lower ability group (didn't work with them last week) said 'miss what have you done now!!!' I need to tell you at break time (on playground duty), so off the come outside to find me. 'So what happened miss?' they said. I said 'I fell over a child at brownies last week. I am fine, it looks worse than it is.' cue 6 children who all say 'you silly billy miss you need wrapping up in cotton wool!' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 A couple of weeks ago i was having a conversation with a 3 year old about the new pony he had got 'its called Milo' he said. 'oh' says I 'my dog is called Milo'. He looked at me for a second and said quite disparagingly 'did you not see it was a horse before you got him?' no answer really!

Guest Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Well last Friday it was my birthday, and as we sat in the book corner at one point ready to sing a song I asked what number we should count to so we could all start together. No one answered so I said "well I'm 47 today so shall we count to 47?" "Oh no you're joking that'll take tooooo long" said our best counter..... so we counted to 4 Rachel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Well my lot are particularly in to birthdays at the moment. This afternoon one of my boys made some cakes out of playdough, stuck a birthday candle in each one, put them in a tin and left them on my desk as a surprise. I of course, play acted 'it's my birthday' and they all decided to sing to me. Now whenever we sing Happy Birthday at the end we clap - one clap for each year of the child's age. After singing to me one child started spontaneously clapping then another stopped him "Don't, it'll take too long, we'll have to clap thousands!" he said!

AnonyMouse_38752 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I've been thinking whether to post this or not, but it ought to be shared... One day we were collecting worms in the garden. I looked for something to put them in and found an old aquarium. Me: 'There, let's put them in here. Let's make a wormery.' A little while later, the children had got bored with the worms and had made a home for lady birds and various other bugs they found instead. I congratulated them: 'WoW, you have found a lot of bugs.' A colleague who walked past, asked the children what they were doing, and one little darling chirps up loudly and clearly:'We're making a b***ery!' The memory of this has us laughing in tears every time I mention it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_6361 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 During maths class break time. A fellow teaching assistant from another school happened to mention this tonight. On her first day on a school trip to a farm. the Farmer said 'who knows what the name of a baby cow is?' A boy said 'a MILF!' very proudly. Another child said to her 'Mrs whats a MILF' TA said 'Errrrmmm' walks away and nearly falls down the small steps. Don't you just love working with children!!!

AnonyMouse_16365 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I had a small boy come into school one day announcing loudly to everyone in a packed waiting area " My Dad's got a sore bum. He's got a sore bum, he hurt it with a hammer. He needed a plaster for his sore bum"". Mum didn't know what to do with herself, the rest of the parents were in hysterics. Then we noticed he was wiggling his THUMB!....classic moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_19782 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 We gave the children some mini mince pies this week with their snack one little girl said she definitely didn't want to try it so we gave her a biscuit instead. Later when going around the table with extra fruit etc. another little girl sitting beside the first said, "can I have a biscuit?", to which adult replied, "but you've had a mince pie to eat, ******* doesn't like mince pies, that's why she's got a biscuit" back came the reply "I didn't like the mince pie!", (she had eaten it all though - hmmm cute or what)!

AnonyMouse_13818 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I sat with our whole foundation stage group this afternoon watching a Christmas DVD. At one point Father Christmas was called St. Nicholas. One of my children was sitting with me feeling rather sleepy. She suddenly sat up when she heard the name St. Nicholas and said in a questioning tone 'St. knickers'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_29873 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 That was soooo funny - my eldest two chuckled too ! My youngest (aged 4yrs) on the morning of his birthday ( after asking several times before he went to sleep whether it was his birthday yet....) awoke in my bed and immediately stood up on the bed and said "am I any bigger ?". On the way to school he asked me as somebody approached from the opposite direction," Do people know its my birthday ?" had me smiling and still does ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 My mum and dad were visiting my sister the other day. Dad was measuring something in the kitchen and left his keys there. Mum found them later, stood in the kitchen doorway and threw them to land next to him on the sofa. Cue one small and very indignant 4 year old... J: "Granny! Don't throw! We give, not throw!" Granny: "I'm sorry Justin" J: "Now say sorry to Grandpa!" His nursery are doing a great job! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_2127 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I bought wooden food for our home corner and threw away all the plastic ones. One little girl asked "what is this?" holding a wooden tub of half fat single cream. I told her it was cream. I said that I liked cream, especially on strawberries. She looked a bit puzzled. I said have you had cream before and she said yes, she had. I said "I like cream on raspberries and other fruit, what do you like it on?" Her reply......"On my bum when it's sore!!" There followed a conversation about different kinds of cream :rolleyes: Sue J 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
