This week has been... standardized testing week. It's also my last week of work, for the record. In addition to EVERY student, grades 3-10, having to take a test, the state of Alaska has added this year a Science test for grades 4, 8, and 10.
Several of the students in our 4th grade classroom are actually third graders according to the state, so while the rest of their class slaves away at bubble-filling, they're hanging out with me. We had some work to do, but at this point, we're just hanging out, chatting, listening to some Mexican music, and being artistic. They were especially interested in the Mexican music. We found Mexico on the globe and everything.
Suddenly, the inevitable happens, someone passes wind.
Student 1: "Student 2 FARTED! AAAAH!"
Me: "Everyone farts sometimes. It's not a big deal. But for the rest of the day, if we have to fart, let's try to go over by the door."
Student 2: "Okay."
Student 1: "Everyone farts?"
Me: "Yup."
Student 1: "Even 50 Cent?"
Me: "Yeah, if he eats a lot of beans or drinks a lot of milk or something."
Student 2: "Even Mexican people fart?"
Me: "Yes. Even Mexican people. Everyone farts."
