A couple of days before winter break, I caught some students passing a note in class. There is a standard protocol most teachers follow in this scenario:
1)Take the note from the students and scold them for being disrespectful
2)Crumple up the note and throw it in the trash can by my desk...it's less gross
3)Go back and retrieve the note after class and read what the students were writing.
I followed all three steps and was rewarded with the following exchange of Yo Momma jokes:
Yo Momma is so old, she was in Jesus' yearbook
Yo Momma is so dumb, she tripped over a cordless phone
Yo Momma is so poor, she drives a peanut
Yo Momma's teeth are so yellow when she drinks water, it turns into lemonade.
I don't really understand the peanut joke, but the rest of these made me laugh. I was just glad to see that sometimes 8th graders are still innocent enough to be passing around silly jokes.
