This morning while standing in the hallway taking off my rainboots, a third grade student came up to me and asked me for some clarification.
“Teacher. If I say “I gotta go pee pee” is that okay?
“Um… Well…”
I then spent the next five minutes in the hallway differentiating between all the various ways we express our bodily urges. Good to know that even though I don’t teach third grade students anymore, they still view me as a resource.
