Subject: First Grade Perspective...... The kindergartners were now first graders. The teacher made the following announcement to the class: "Now that you are in the first grade, we will need to work on using grown-up words, and not use baby words anymore. Now, let's tell everyone what we did over the summer." Well, the first little girl got up and said that she went to see her "Nana" over the vacation. The teacher said "That's good! But we need to start saying "Grandma" like a grown-up, not "Nana". That's a baby word." The next little boy got up and said with a big smile that he went for a long ride on a "choo-choo". The teacher said, "I bet that was exciting! But we need to start saying "train" like a grown-up, not "choo-choo". That's a baby word." Well, the last little boy got up to tell what he had done on vacation. He said that he had read a book. The teacher said, "That's wonderful! Which book did you read?" The little boy stood up nice and tall, puffed out his chest and in the most adult voice he could muster, he said, "Winnie The Shit".
