I was going through a stack of student work this morning and almost fell off my chair laughing when I saw this:
This was an assignment to illustrate sets of homophones and write a sentence for each one under their respective flap. One of my dear students wrote and drew this masterpiece for the word "weight":
And just in case you missed it:
Did you see the hand to the face? Priceless!

I love when kids are not aware of what they share! I tell parents I will only believe half of what the kids say about their parents, if they only believe half of what the kids say about me! Great foldable idea, too! I only have three teaching days left and then SUMMER! I'm ready for a break from the grown--ups, not the kids.
That is so cute and funny! I created a good picture resource for homophone if you are interested to take a look...

That's mom every morning! I'm there too now.
love, dad
Thanks for sharing your awesome resource, Sneaker Teacher! I love Boardmaker :)
That is the funniest thing ever! What do you think the Mom would say if she knew!?!
Don't you wish you could watch the kids show these things to their parents? I sure do!
That's hilarious!!
ahaha! That is too funny!
My concern is that she wrote "some" and "sun". Those aren't homophones.
This the cutest things I have seen!!Kudos to that kid for his observation.
Good one! Thanks for the laugh!

That is flippin brilliant!
That is hysterical and awesome in every way. You know kids everywhere are witnessing that very scene on a daily basis. Man, what I wouldn't give to weigh 169. My kid would be witnessing a totally different scene.
Thanks for sharing and giving me a good laugh.

That is hysterical. I'm a teacher as well and I always say if you want to know the truth ask a kid. They are honest to a fault.
Great drawing--observant down to the tenth of a pound! I wonder if that quote coming out of the mom's mouth was verbatim....
If only mom knew that not only the comment, but the ACTUAL WEIGHT was shared!! Too funny!
I don't know what to say. This is quite fascinating to read..I am going to keep on reading. :D
That is a crack up! I have a few tales like this from my daycare days!
That's hysterical!!! I'm a teacher, too. I love all the things my preschoolers say!
That is just awesome! This reminds me of this hilarious piece of homework a child did.

It gets me every time!
I'm visiting from The Girl Next Door writing contest and just wanted to say that this post made me smile!
That is priceless!!! Kids are hilarious!
I clicked over from The Girl Next Door. I needed the laugh. So hilarious. I'm sure the mother was not as thrilled as the rest of us are!
hahahaha... oh wait, I didn't know you taught my child!
Priceless!
i'm here from Girl Next Door, too.
this is hysterical. i think i just NEVER want to know all the things my kids' teachers know about our family. i choose "ignorance is bliss..."
OK that was hilarious!!! Oh the things teachers see!
Thank you for sharing :-)
That was awesome! Stopping by from Girl Next Door's writing contest.
I love what comes out of children. It is so pure. Stopping by from the Girl Next Door.
I love this! The little cartoon character looks exactly like I do when I "have weight!"
Love this, this child really observes.
