more about school

You may be working in a gifted classroom when these two directives come out of your mouth within sixty seconds:

"Cole, apologize to Brooklyn and stop licking her pencil!"

"Cole! Your job right now is not to reconfigure the site urls on the class blog!"

Moments like these help me to understand why everybody does not want my job. Oh well, their loss.

maybe in science class...

Today in reading class, my gifted third-grader learned to launch a pencil out of his belly button.

He was obviously not in *my* reading class (at the very least, I would have made him write instructions for other would-be pencil launchers).
