A Friday Giggle

This week was the last week of the 3rd grading period AND the last week before spring break, which has meant lots of work and long hours. Last night, I was finishing up the last of my grading, still at school, at around 5:00. I had given my kids a weekly quiz that day that contained an analogy. We had discussed this particular analogy, but my kids seemed to have a hard time remembering the correct response on the quiz. One child, in particular, studied the question for a long time, finally carefully writing a response. I collected the test without looking at her response until I did my grading last night:

Q: ewe : sheep :: doe : _____________________


A: donut

I used to give half credit if the answer made me laugh out loud. At least you're encouraging creativity and humor.

Have fun at the Joseph show.
