Me: "Good news! Speech is apart of school!"

First grader: *unimpressed* "NO."

I was dealing with a difficult mom today trying to get her kid on for online therapy, when I was finally able to get them logged on to do a session, the kid was in his underwear. When I asked if he could put on some clothes real fast she was shocked that I knew he wasn’t wearing any. She didn’t think I would be able to see them. And I’m like fam, this is a video conference.

Since schools are shut down due to Covid-19 I have to do online therapy from my house. Today I was working with two kindergarteners who front their /k/s (the /k/s turn into /t/s). So we’re going and it’s complete chaos, and in walks my cat and gives a big meow, which instantly starts a chorus of “a titty!!!” and one of them starts chanting “I want to see your titty!”.  The little control I had was long gone after that.

Superhero day brought in some pretty legit costumes, but my favorite was the 3rd grader who came in pajamas, a blanket cape, and a bedazzled eye mask saying she was “the worst super villain of all time” and when asked about what her powers were said “I just do everything better”

The fifth graders are doing a Harry Potter themed unite and today they got sorted into houses, when I picked up one of my fifth graders he was pissed

Me: "How was the sorting ceremony?"

5th grader: "Not good."

Me: "Oh no did you not get the house you were hoping for?"

5th grader: "Nope. They put me in hufflepuff, but I'm a slytherin."

Me: "That's a bummer I'm sorry"

5th grader: "It's ok, I'm going to make my friend switch with me"

Me: "Cool, what would you name your pet walrus?"

3rd grader: "Their trunks are awesome sauce for real"

Me: "Do you mean tusks?"

3rd grader: "No they are called trunks, I'm sure"
