This thread was inspired by something that happened today while I was homeschooling my 7/yo son. Hands down, this was the best moment ever for a teacher/mom.
Miles was doing his Beyond The Code book, and there is a section in each lesson where you are supposed to circle the suffix that words share in each word family. So he was working, and I was sitting here, and from across the table I heard, "Ass! That's not a good word for kids! Why do they want you to do that?" I looked up and said, "Huh? What are you talking about?" Miles, looking a tad distressed and confused, pointed to the word family page, "Ass! Ass! They want you to circle ass!" It took every last stitch of restraint in my body not to bust out in hysterical laughter.
Do you have funny stories about your kids?
