funny week

Sometimes kids say the funniest things. In class on Thursday, I asked if anyone had been watching the weather channel and following the hurricane. Some raised their hands and made some comments. One of my boys (who is GT) stated that he had not been able to watch the weather because he had been watching the Republican convention. I commented that I found that interesting and asked him if he was Republican. He nodded yes. Then, my little Rebecca in the front row, (who had been listening so intently to every word,) raised her hand. I said "yes, Rebecca, did you have something to add?" With her big brown eyes shining at me, she said "Well, Mrs. Medley, I am part Indian."
