your room just smells so good.....

i promised you that once school started that i would have some funny stories. well here is the first of many.

our building is a metal building that was supposed to be a temporary building, but because of small school finances, it has been up for about 15 years. anyway when it rains we get water in areas of our rooms because of leaking. so for many years i have bought plug-in to help with the smell. we used to use candles, but because of fire hazards, they asked us not to use the candles anymore.

any way, my homeroom class has 19 students in it, as i have previously stated. they are a great bunch of kids, but they are VERY busy and up all the time. they are an active bunch.

so i get ready to teach a math game and i look around the room and notice that one of my students is not in his chair. i look to see if he had the bathroom bear in his chair to signal that he had gone to the bathroom. after a few seconds of looking around the room i finally call out his name.

he suddenly pops his head up and gets off his knees and replies,"what?" "where were you," i asked. he said,"i was down there on the floor smelling your plug ins. ahhhh they just smell so good."

i was laughing so hard inside. what do you say to that????????
