A 4th Grade Funny!

Each week in school, we study specific vocabulary words. Last week, we were studying the words Elegant and Practical. I asked the class "Would it be very practical for me to take my elegant prom dress camping?" The class laughed! "No way, Ms. Davis!!"
I listed reasons why it wouldn't be practical to take a prom dress camping on the board: the dress could get dirty, the dress could rip, it would be to cold, etc. Just as I thought I thought we were done with this list, Karla raised her hand and said: "Ms. Davis, it wouldn't be very practical to bring your prom dress camping because you wouldn't be able to fit into it anymore!" It took a minute for the rest of the class to get it, but I just laughed!
Sometimes, my students say the funniest and sometimes most honest comments. I just had to write this experience down so that I would not forget it!

Beans and Hotdogs...

Have you ever had a favorite dinner that you loved to eat as a kid? Well, for me, that was beans and hot dogs. I actually made it for my dad and I tonight, and it brought back all kinds of memories. I remember eating beans and hot dogs for lunch during the summer! I also remember my grandma and I eating beans and hot dogs together when I was staying with her in Utah. I love how the two flavors come together and make a tasty meal. I know, it sounds kind of gross, but I loved that meal as a kid! It is so simple to make, but I really love it.
I love how food can bring back certain memories! It was fun to reminisce tonight!
