You know it has happened to you…a kid says something that leaves you bewildered or smiling wide and you think “I wanna remember this”. I have some pretty hilarious kiddos who say great stuff. About 2 years ago, I decided I was gonna document all of those great quotes and started this…
So now, when one of my kids suggests ‘beer' as a final /r/ word or tells me that ‘awesomer' is a word in their world, I write it down. I keep this right next to my table and my students don't even flinch when I whip it out and record a funny. On the rough days I can pull this out and I guarantee a smile. I bet by the end of my career this little yellow book will be full of amazing memories that I can keep forever.
Do you have a way to keep track of funny speech-isms? I would love to hear!

We have one in the teachers room to share funnies!
What a brilliant idea! My roommates and I had a quote book in college and we still laugh about what we wrote. I never thought about using it at work!
I have a quote book too! One of my faves: Are we gonna do arts and craps today?
While working on compliments with my student on the spectrum, he came up with, “I think you have nice knees!” Lol.
That is a great idea!! My co-worker was sharing a doozy today, and I told her she should write a book. 🙂

GREAT idea!! Children do say some of the funniest things. 🙂
