Balderdash Blogs... Dare we say brilliant? :)

Welcome to Balderdash Blogs!


Like I mentioned in the title... "Dare we say brilliant?"

This is a blog in which I plan to share the nonsensical day-to-day events that occur in the day and the life of a teacher. If you would like to read more about the "darndest things" kids say, or the puzzling events that somehow manage to occur, this blog spot is for you. :)

Please feel free to share your funny stories, and moments that make you smile or lol. I am excited to see what you have to say! :)

  1. As I am sitting in my classroom on my day off of school, trying to pull it all together before the kiddos come through that door Tuesday morning, one of my past first grader's voice sang out in my head! Last year I must have been a little out of sorts, because she looked at me and said, "Sink or swim time, Ms. Hartman. What's is going to be?" After I heard her little fist grade voice (like it was just yesterday) I said to myself "my choice is to swim!" It was a great reminder of why I do what I do! :)

  2. I met all my new students on Tuesday at Open House, which made me very excited to come back to school. One of my students came into the classroom and asked me how old I was. I told them that they needed to guess. His guess was 18! In the past students have guessed 35 so I guess 18 is a compliment. Here I come 3rd graders!

  4. I decided this year to drink lots of water in class. I wanted to add some flavor to my water one day, so I added grape. The purple was more like brown in the water. I student polietly asked me what I was drinking. I stated it was grape flavored water. He replied I was hoping it wasn't sewer water. I relpies nope, but thanks for looking out for my health. HE HE HE. He could have something much worse

  5. We were talking about domestication in class and kids had to pick between 5 animals and guess the only one that was domesticated. One student asked, "Isn't the monkey domesticated?" to which another student replied, "Domesticated animals don't throw their poop at you!"

    I'm hoping that student wasn't speaking from experience!
