Today was my second day in the same kinder class.
Rather than say the word "sexy" on it's own, students began to sing "I'm Sexy and I Know It", because they said if they use the word in a song, it doesn't count as a bad word. I would expect this from a fourth grader, but I was shocked to hear this rationale from a kinder. I do remember, however, that when I was a little girl, the only time I was allowed to say "damn" was when my dad let me sing "Much Too Young" by Garth Brooks. So I guess these kids have the same mentality. Thinking about the kinders saying that they can say that word in a song makes me giggle thinking about when I said that to my dad. Good memories.
The same little boy who kept saying bad words spit in a little boy's face today. When I confronted him about it, he lowered his eyes and said he did it on purpose. Then he walked up to me and hugged me. That is the thing about little kids that I love and hate at the same time. I love the fact that although they can be little butt heads, they still try to apologize by using a physical gesture. However, I hate that they try to hug me because they make my heart melt, and I just can't stay mad at them. =)
