We're playing Taboo (a vocabulary game where you have to describe a given word without using some other words, like explain 'cinema' but not say 'movie, film, popcorn, watch').
Kid 1: Uther.
(I am actually certain he said 'other', but it did sound like 'Uther' and we had been watching Merlin with this group)
Kid 2: Queen!
Noelia: He kind of is. And a fabulous one at that.

Kid 3: I bought batteries, and they gave me a free Batman tattoo. I thought you might like it, Miss.
Noelia: Oh, thank you. You don't want it?
Kid 3: Nah, I mean, I'm too old for this crap.
Noelia: ...

Noelia: *writing examples of the second conditional sentences on the board* If I were you, I would do what captain Kirk says.
Kid 1: Kirk? Like in Star Wars?
Noelia: NO. LIKE IN STAR TREK. Have I taught you nothing? Han Solo is in Star Wars, Kirk is in Star Trek. Do I have to write a chart?
Kid 1: Will that be on the test?
Noelia: DON'T TEMPT ME.
Kid 4: Aren't we supposed to study English?
Noelia: Probably, but I can't have you leave this class without knowing the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek, for heaven's sake.

Noelia: I need to leave the classroom for a moment. Please work on the exercise, and don't make too much noise, and I won't have to kill you.
Kid 2: *thoughtfully* I think Miss is kidding about the killing.
Noelia: No, I'm not.
Kid 2: Oh. Really?
Noelia: No.
Kid 2: Just when I think I know when Miss is joking...
Kid 5: You never can tell when Miss is joking. Her humour is different than our humour.
Noelia: It's called sarcasm, just look it up.
Kid 2: Can I please get the dictionary, Miss?
Noelia: ...

I te słowa o Star Treku i Star Warsach, jak to dobrze, że dbasz o ich edukację!

Ktoś musi. Boleję nad młodzieżą, która nie wie, że Han Strzelił Pierwszy.

Ah, Kids! a wonder they are.

I laughed a lot at the Star Wars/Star Trek thing. LOL. and the Batman tattoo. It's weird how when we're kids we feel the need to "grow out' of things and then when we hit our twenties, we sort of wish we had it back again, because what was uncool in to kids our age then is not cool again once everyone has grown older.

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

I was never cool. Well, apart from the part where I was the coolest girl in the world to all the elevenyear old boys, because I had a lightsaber my Dad made for me. But other than that, no, never cool. XD

[destinyawakened.livejournal.com]

ah, well you know, me either! In Grade school I was the weird kid who read DC comic books and watched Batman TAS, the boys liked me. the girls, not so much. Middle came and I was the Star Wars nerd, which boys still loved and girls were like wtf? And then high school second year i tried to be cool, but yeah didn't happen. LOTR came out and I sucked back into nerdom. And then Came Batman again.. and we all see where that went. :) nothing wrong with not being "cool", because you're cool in your own way.

*lol* i wish i'd had you as a teacher in school ^.~

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

So do I, actually. I mean, maybe not me, because as a teacher I'm a huge dork and all, but someone who got Star Wars and stuff ;D

THESE KIDS ARE GREAT!

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they sometimes give me back some remnants of the faith in the human race. XD

[kubis.livejournal.com]

I thought your flist is supposed to do that!

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

Yeah...no.

I mean, they try, but every day something like the M jak Miłośc psychotest happens, and then I lose it all over again.

XD

(My students are too old to be this much fun... :P)

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

Arthur is indeed a pretty, pretty princess. ♥

I never thought I'd enjoy teaching kids, but they are just so much fun :D

[aries11.livejournal.com]

Your job sounds like so much fun! :D

I'm not the biggest fan of either, but even I know the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek.

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

It is fun :D. I mean, sure, I have days when I just want to go on a killing spree, but generally, I love it :D

[johanirae.livejournal.com]

Heeheehee XD Kids these days...

But ZOMG, KIDS THINKING THEY ARE WAY TOO OLD FOR BATMAN! *gasp*

[noelia-g.livejournal.com]

I think it was more about the temporary tattoo than Batman XD.

[hitokaji.livejournal.com]

LOL!!
They're aso adorable,aren't they? :)
No.2 cracks me up so much!
No.3 kinda reminds me how much I suffer with conditional sentence when I was young and had to spend hours with it before the exam.....*sniffs*

And I just want to hug all of them in No.4!
