Vocabulary Lesson

While I wasn't actually involved in this conversation, I thought it was worth posting.

A friend of mine filled in today for a regular education teacher while some assessment was taking place with students. So, while filling in for the teacher, she was responsible for helping the students copy down their spelling words and write a definition for each word. In attempting to help a student with the word stride, the student looked at her and said, "That's easy, it's a gum!"

Enough said.

Later.
