Funny Life Quotes

from The Diary of a First Grade Teacher

Funny life quotes fly innocently out of the mouths of babies in the first grade classroom.

That’s because the first graders are trying desperately to understand their world. And they can ALMOST get it all straight. Problem is their interpretation may be just a tad bit off ...



The Dreaded School Accident

Clarissa ran out of the bathroom screaming, "Ooh, Teacher, come quick! You won't believe what Weesie done went and done!"

Funny Life Quotes

Inside the bathroom, I looked to where Clarissa was pointing.

“Weesie,” I said, “is this your underwear in the TRASHCAN?”

Little Weesie stumbled from around the corner, looking pale and weak. “Uh huh, 'cause they ruined.”

“Oh? What’s wrong, baby?”

“I can’t help it,” she sniffled. “My butt just THROWED UP!”

Poor baby was so sick!


Count to 100

“I can count to 100!” Ben said.

“So?” Joe Joe snarled. “I can count to ah ... a MILLION!”

“A million?” Ben gulped. “Go ahead. Do it.”

Joe Joe didn’t hesitate. “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 … ” But suddenly he was silent. “Say, how many fangers and toes is it?”


My A-B-Cs

This morning, Ema skipped into the classroom. “Guess what, Teacher. Yesterday night, I saw pictures in my pillow!”

How creative, I thought, she must have been dreaming.

"Yeah? SO?" Joe Joe barked. “Last night I learned ALL my A-B-Cs." He looked at me. "Listen!”

He thrust out his chest and began to sing. “A-B-C, D-R-V, P-E-S, T-U-Z.”

Now he stood at attention - solemn and proud - like a soldier.

Was he finished?

Whenever his eyes riveted to me, I took it as my cue. I want to be truthful - but positive - with my students. So I said, “Well, you … you surely do have good rhythm.”

Joe Joe saluted me and said, “Yes, Sir!” Then, he marched directly to his desk and promptly took his seat.

Now, is that cute or what?!


Funny Life Quotes

Parents send money to school for a variety of reasons. And - as requested - most send it in a sealed envelope ...

But whenever Joe Joe placed his envelope on my desk for his school pictures, it had been ripped opened.

“Where’s the money?” I asked.

He stood beside me and grunted. "Urrgh!"

Slowly, his little fingers smoothed out the bills and handed them to me, one by one.

Each and every time he’d ask, “Is that enough?”

Each and every time, I shook my head.

He continued until he held the last bill ... And now, he stared at my opened hand.

Exasperated, he finally huffed, “HERE! Just take it ALL!”
