Whilst teaching Language Arts and doing a dictation exercise, where they have to write a series of sentences given to them orally. (Reminder: My kids have learning disabilities and are below grade level in reading…)
Me: “Robert needed to have his deck scrubbed before the event.”
D’Avonte: (snort)
Me: “What is your problem?”
D’Avonte: (laughing)
Me: “His DECK…he needed his DECK scrubbed.”
