J. Posey, a fellow teacher, told me today that she was talking about U.S. currency in her 7th grade class. She held up a dollar bill and asked her students, "What denomination is this?" No response. "Students, you all recognize this type of currency, don't you?" "Yes." "What denomination is it?" she asked again. One boy bravely ventured a guess, "Catholic?"
No kidding.

I always laugh a ton when I read these stories, but now I'm wondering if when I was at this age, did I say these crazy things too? Or also have these crazy thoughts? Oooh, man... junior high was such a strange time for everyone and it sounds like it still is.
Keep the posts coming. I LOVE THEM!
