Smile for the day

Here's taste of what school teachers go through..


My five-year old students, are learning to read.

Yesterday one of them pointed at

a picture in a zoo book and said,

"Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"

I took a deep breath, then asked..."What did you call it?"


"It's a frickin' elephant!
It says so on the picture!" And so it does....






"A f r i c a n Elephant "

Hooked on phonics! Ain't it wonderful?
