Funny Stories

Here's a collection of true funny stories taken straight from a journal I named The Diary of a First Grade Teacher.

Funny True Stories

So whenever he came into our classroom, I said, "Class, this is Mr. Benken, the principal of our school."

Stevie, who was standing beside me, heard Mr. Benken's voice and looked inspired. "Man!" he blurted. "Is that really you?"

He stood staring at Mr. Benken... first mesmerized, then exuberant. "WOW!" he finally gasped. "How do you do it?"

"What are you talking about, son?" Mr. Benken replied.

"You know," Stevie explained. He spoke loudly and slowly, as if the principal was both deaf and slow. "You the big man in the little box on the wall... How do you do it?!"

Teacher, don't you get it?

And he did. “The gifts aren’t here,” he articulated.

“Remember, the word, aren’t, is a contraction,” I said.

“Aren’t stands for TWO WORDS. Who will tell me WHAT the two words are?”

Stevie volunteered. “It means the gifts ain’t here.”

"Uhhh..." I said, and paused.

Stevie took it from there. And dove home his point...

He slid his body halfway across the table, stuck his head right in my face, and spoke in a condescending tone.

“They gone! YOU KNOW? That means, they AIN’T HERE!
