Blurt

Yesterday in Reading Class, we played Blurt. For those of you not familiar with the game, let me explain. I read a description of a word and they get to yell out the word. One example would be: it has four legs, a seat, and a back. Well, the word would be "chair."

So in the midst of the game yesterday I read: "spoiled," "Rotten" to which Renaldo yells out "BRAT!"

I stopped and looked at him. I wasn't even done with the description and he had the word I was needing to hear.

So I said, "Renaldo, why did you know that so fast?"

And without missing a beat, he said, "Because my Grandpa calls me that all the time."

Go figure...
