Kids Say The Darndest Things

Or rather, kids WRITE the darndest things.

My kindergarten students all have these communication journals. Every night, the children must write our Word of the Day in the journal and show me the next day. Yesterday's word was "this."

Unfortunately for Amber, she rearranged the letters of the word "this" into, well, THIS:

 I love that last week's words were all just fine. But this week? It's shit, apparently. I should also tell you that Amber has a fraternal twin sister named Dora. Dora did not have a problem writing "this" in her journal. Oh Amber!

Here is a close-up of what is now my absolute favorite thing any of my students have ever done. Enjoy!
