so today i made a sweet slideshow for my students. it's a fairy tale. i'll paraphrase.
weak boy wants to be strong, goes to see the local witch.
witch is ugly, boy buys potion to get strong.
potion is gross, boy is scared but drinks it anyway.
boy turns into velociraptor and he's like "whaaaa?"
then he eats the witch. because he's a dinosaur.
then he turns back into a weak boy and he's like dangit. (note: there's supposed to be a picture of arnold schwarzenegger in the thought bubble, but for some reason it didn't work.)
so he starts working out and then wins the mr. universe competition. the end.
they liked it, but after it was over they realized that i was going to make them do work again.
kid: "if you tell us that we're going to have to write our own stories now, i'm going to shoot myself in the head."
me: "well i guess you better get your gun out..."
i just could not help myself. i feel like if i was a real teacher, i'd probably get sued for that.

Sent here from Jana's blog. All I can say ... wow. you're dang funny.
Love it.
So are you like Jana - appear quiet at first & then over time, are this hilarious, intelligent gem to be slowly discovered?-does that run in the family? - Ok, weird coming from someone you don't know
Anyhow, thanks for the laughs, with the rad art.
