Children Are Quick

TEACHER: Why are you late?
STUDENT: Class started before I got here.

TEACHER: John, why are you doing your math multiplication on the floor?
JOHN: You told me to do it without using tables.

TEACHER: Glenn, how do you spell 'crocodile?'
GLENN: K-R-O-K-O-D-I-A-L'
TEACHER: No, that's wrong
GLENN: Maybe it is wrong, but you asked me how I spell it.
(I Love this child)

TEACHER: Donald, what is the chemical formula for water?
DONALD: H I J K L M N O.
TEACHER: What are you talking about?
DONALD: Yesterday you said it's H to O.

TEACHER: Winnie, name one important thing we have today that we didn't have ten years ago.
WINNIE: Me!

TEACHER: Glen, why do you always get so dirty?
GLEN: Well, I'm a lot closer to the ground than you are.

TEACHER: Millie, give me a sentence starting with 'I'.
MILLIE: I is...
TEACHER: No, Millie..... Always say, 'I am.'
MILLIE: All right... 'I am the ninth letter of the alphabet.'

TEACHER: George Washington not only chopped down his father's cherry tree, but also admitted it. Now, Louie, do you know why his father didn't punish him?
LOUIS: Because George still had the axe in his hand.....

TEACHER: Now, Simon , tell me frankly, do you say prayers before eating?
SIMON: No sir, I don't have to, my Mum is a good cook.

TEACHER: Clyde , your composition on 'My Dog' is exactly the same as your brother's. Did you copy his?
CLYDE : No, sir. It's the same dog.
(I want to adopt this kid!!!)

TEACHER: Harold, what do you call a person who keeps on talking when people are no longer interested?
HAROLD: A teacher

I bet many of the members have young grandchildren that have said something comical at times. Lets be hearing them.

My Nephew, aged about 7, came home from school and announced "I had sex at school today" After a stunned silence we realised that he meant he had had "secs" (second helping) of pudding!

I'm in disgrace for teaching GS to answer back. I was telling my GCs how adults never answered a question when I was a child and if you asked "where are you going" or 'where have you been" you would be told "There and back to see how far it is" or my dad's favourite "Back of Bill's mother's to see Mary" or "To see a man about a dog".
Next time he was asked "Where have you been" my 6 year old GS answered "Back of Bill's mother's to see Mary"!

Reminds me of the child who was busy painting a picture of God, the teacher said that no one really knew what God looked like.
“They will in a minute” said the child.

great again Maywalk, I have one to add

Teacher: Give me a sentence containing the word donkey
Boy 1: My old grandad has a donkey jacket
Teacher: Will you add the word buttons to that.
Boy 2: My old grandad has a donkey jacket, it has twelve buttons.
Teacher: Can anyone add the word fascinate to that sentence.
Boy 3: My old grandad has a donkey jacket, it has twelve buttons but he can only fasten eight.

Years ago I was making a mother's day cake with my small nephew to surprise his mum when she came to collect him.
We had made a bit of a botch job of it and I said encouragingly "don't worry. We'll spell mummy with some smarties on the top and it will look lovely" to which my nephew replied gloomily "we should be spelling 'sorry' on that cake'."

(He had a point)
