I'm Not Her Mom!

So we're in beginning piano class today and I am at the dry erase board helping a little girl write a rhythm. One of the kids comments, "Miss Stephens, from the back, you look like a mom and daughter. You have the same color hair." Then little Sarah turns to me and says, "Miss Stephens, I don't look like your mom!" HA! You should have seen her face, she was so serious...she totally didn't get that they meant I looked like her mom! It was precious cute!

What Might Happen If...

So I was organizing my classroom for next year and came across some stories that were written by my third graders. I asked several questions and their job was to write a story to go along with one of the questions. Here are just a few of their stories as written by them:

What Might Happen If A Player In The Orchestra Continuously Played All The Wrong Notes?

Every body would leave and start screaming and yelling and taring [tearing] the chairs apart. and some people would cry because they paid alot of money to see it. I would start crying because couldn't find my family.

What Might Happen If An Orchestra Had No Conductor?
Everyone would get off tune and keep going and never know when to stop People would blow up because they would never stop. I would have to call the ambulains [ambulence] to make them stop.
- Sara

What I think what might happen if a symphony Orchestra didn't have a conductor everyone would forget to go to the bathroom before so they would half [have] to go during the musical.
- Alexis

Everything would go wrong and someone mite [might] play the wrong instrument and some one mite not blow spit out of there [their] trumpet and spit flew all over the audience.
