Endless entertainment...
Today we were talking about different types of renewable energy. I asked Flava Flav to tell us what he'd learned about wind power from his homework and he read me a few sentences from the reading...
Me: Okay, so other types of power use steam to turn turbines. What turns the turbine with wind power?
Flava Flav: (looking down, almost to himself) Love.
A few minutes later after I had given them instructions for a project they were to be working on, I looked up and started to tell him to sit down and be quiet. Annoying Boy was also singing, so I was talking to both of them. At that point, Flava Flav started grinding on the large wooden pole in the middle of the room...and I couldn't keep a straight face anymore...
Speaking of that wooden beam, we started our discussion of renewable and nonrenewable resources yesterday, and we were talking about trees. Flava Flav asked how we got wood from trees...so I explained about cutting down trees and making boards from the logs...and I pointed to the wooden pole as an example.
Flava Flav: That's from a tree?!?!?!?
That was after he came into class and announced that he had cataracts in his hand...
Finally, a story not about Flava Flav...
In math lab yesterday, the ninth grade girls somehow got into a discussion about fat people vs. bulky people. One of the girls announced: "My dad is so fat in his belly...it looks like he has seven uplets in there!"
