I agree

Kids say the darndest things. I was teaching the other day in my fourth grade class. School had just started. I had been on my knees cleaning behind my desk. As I was starting to speak I noticed that my pants had white spots all over on the knee from being on the floor.

I started laughing. One girl asked what I was laughing about. I told her that the floor was filthy because it looked like I was wearing pants that hadn't been washed. She looked at my pants and said, "Dab, don't rub!"



I was soooo amused! Another girl piped up and said, "Yeah-don't rub, you have to dab it with a wet cloth." I asked where they learned that. They both said, "Whenever I get my shirt dirty that's what my mom says. Dab, don't rub!"

It's been two weeks and I am still laughing about it! I love being a teacher.
