C

It was my first day. I was introduced to my kids and then I was alone with them. Seemed like everyone was staring at me---and they were. I was so nervous...I started singing. "A, B, C, D, E, F, G...H, I , J , K LMNOP....Q R S....T U V...W X...Y & Z...Now I know my ABC's...next time won't you sing with me? YAYYYYY!!!" Clapping and jumping like a fool all by my foolish and nervous self. They stared at me with open mouths. Some screamed for their mommies. I went on about my business and started my lesson plan. To no avail.


I sang it every morning. And some other songs.




 Two weeks later on the playground I hear a bunch of babble to the ABC tune, then I hear "YAYYYY!" Other teachers looked confused. What was wrong? The kid who was singing...they didn't even know he could talk. It's much later, and my heart has been stolen by 30 cute little sour patch kids.




GN all.
