Conversations with Kindergarteners

Substitute teaching hasn't made me want to rejoin the teaching field but it sure provides for some great laughs. Teaching kindergarteners is always entertaining . . .

Student: I'm going to see my Grandma for Fall Break!
Me: Ohh Great! Where does your Grandma live?
Student: (with a serious look on their face) Somewhere
Me: Ohh wow! That sounds like a great place.
Student: Yeah!

Student: I can't wait until I'm 16! (Note: student is currently 5.)
Me: Really?
Student: Yes, I'm going to buy a Range Rover.
Me: Wow! I hope you have lots of $ saved up.
Student: I do! I have a blue piggy bank & a white one!

Student's were asked to draw a picture of their favorite thing about Fall.
Me: What is that?
Student: Darth Vader
Me: What does that have to do with Fall?
Student: I'm going to be Darth Vader for Halloween & that's in the Fall.
Me: Great logic. :)
