Weomans in the Bisco

Q: "What are your friends going to do this weekend?"

A: "maybe hunting weomans in the bisco."

(Corrected sentence- "They might look for women in the disco.")

"Teacher, what does 'one night stand' mean...
...and 'hit it and quit it'...
...and 'wam, bam, thank you ma'am'?"

- This came from Soledad, one of my smallest and most adorable students, who heard another student asking a male teacher about these things. When she got to "wam, bam, thank you ma'am", I laughed until I cried.

Have I mentioned that I love this job?

Fun Fan

This is a conversation that took place between me and a student yesterday...

Student: Is there fun in this class?

Me: Yes! This class will definitely be fun!

Student: No, is there fun?

Me: Yes, I like to have fun in my classes.

Student: There was no fun in the other class.

Me: Really? Who was your teacher?

Student: Nooo, fun!

Me: Write it down.

(She writes "fun" on the board)

Me: Divertido? ("fun" in Spanish)

Student: Nooooo.

(Waves hand in front of her face like a fan.)

Me: Ohhhhh, FAN! No, we don't have a fan in this class, but we can open the window.
