Once You Pop, the Lies Don't Stop

Scenario: Math time, about five minutes after snack.

Players: Team One and Girl K.

The Event: I'm explaining a math game that students will be playing in small groups. As I'm turned around, writing on the board, I hear Team One collectively saying, "OOOOOH! Girl K is eating her chips!" I turn around, glance at Girl K, and ask why/if she was still eating her snack. She shakes her head, but Team One protests. The conversation goes as follows:

Me: "Girl K, why are you eating your chips? Snack ended five minutes ago."

Girl K: "I'm not even eating them! I'm not eating 'em!" *turns to face me*

Me: "Girl K! You're spitting crumbs at me! What do you mean, you're not eating them??"

Girl K: *with crumb-tongue and grease-fingers* "NUH-UH! I'M NOT! I ain't even eatin' 'em! They lyin'! They tryin' to get me in trouble!"

Despite the blatant evidence on her hands, face, and tongue, I bend down to investigate the innards of her desk. Sure enough, a full tube of Pringles is sitting there, open, not even almost camouflaged by her books, folders, and school box.

Maybe you had to be there ...

Week 1

Sitting in the teacher's bathroom of course behind the stall door.  I hear the door open and close quietly.  I see flip flops move past the stall I am in.  Then I see a little face looking at me from under the stall.  I hear "Hi Ms. Schwab, What ya doing?"  I say something like I am using the restroom.  A whole conversation happens, little one still looking under the stall.  I finally say well I am done using the restroom isn't it time you get ready to go back to class?  She then leaves my stall to use the restroom herself.  I finish getting dressed and go wash my hands.  She comes out of the stall and washes her hands as well.  I say what class did you come from, she replies art.  I state what restroom should you use in art?  This is the teacher's restroom she says oh I don't know.  The teacher's really have a restroom!  Can we say BONDING EXPERIENCE!!!
