BIG
PEOPLE WORDS
A group of
kindergartners were trying very hard to become
accustomed to the first
grade.
The
biggest hurdle they faced was that the teacher
insisted on NO baby
talk!
You
need to use 'Big People words,' she was always
reminding them.
She asked John what he had
done over the weekend?
'I
went to visit my Nana.'
'No,
you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use 'Big
People' words!'
She
then asked Mitchell what he had
done
'I
took a ride on a
choo-choo.'
She
said. 'No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. You must
remember to use 'Big People'
words.'
She
then asked little Alex what he had
done?
'I
read a book,' he replied.
That's
WONDERFUL!' the teacher
said.
'What
book did you read?'
Alex
thought real hard about it, then puffed out his
chest with great pride and
said:
"Winnie
the $h1t."
