Topic: NO baby talk!

[Clive]

A group of kindergartners were trying very hard to become
accustomed to the first grade. The biggest hurdle they
faced was that the teacher insisted on NO baby talk!
"You need to use 'Big People' words," she was always
reminding them.
She asked Chris what he had done over the weekend?
?"I went to visit my Nana."
"No, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use 'Big People'
words!"
She then asked Mitchell what he had done.
"I took a ride on a choo-choo."
She said "No, you took a ride on a TRAIN. You must
remember to use 'Big People' words."
She then asked little Alec what he had done?
"I read a book," he replied.
?"That's WONDERFUL!" the teacher said. "What book did you
read?"
?
?
[I love this]
Alec thought real hard about it, then puffed out his
chest with great pride, and said, "Winnie the SHI*."
