Classroom Quotes

I never wanted to be this way, but here I am, talking about nothing but school. Reading through an old journal yesterday, I realized that I wish I wrote down stories and events in my life. Well, these aren't stories, but funny quotes.

Ms. A: (discussing the five themes of geography, movement being one of them). Call out every mode of transportation you've ever traveled on.
Student: Car, boat, train
Student: plane, skateboard
Student: My mom.
Me: What?! How? Piggy back ride?
Class: (laughter)
Student: No. She carried me around for 9 months. That counts right?
Me: Sure, I guess!

In the crowded hall.
Student: Ms. Anderson, I'm your favorite student, aren't I?
Student: No! I am, huh, Ms. Anderson?
Me: Oh, you both are. Cop out answer, right?
Student: No I am!
Student: But I know all the states and capitals.

Yes, yes she does. Oh the joys of middle school...
