Being a teacher there are some times when it is hard to act "mature" and not laugh and one such instance happened during guided reading last week. I have students read a portion of the story to themselves but then will have one student quietly read aloud to me to monitor their reading abilities.
We were reading Dinosaurs Before Dark and the one student was reading along about what Jack was doing and got to a point where they read the following. "No", Jack uttered". Does this seems funny? No? well let me explain what she "really" said. No Jack "you turded". But she knew that didn't sound write so she continued to say You turded for uttered over and over again in different pitches.
Needless to say by the 3rd "you turded" I was laughing trying not to let anyone see, but there were a few tears shed during reading that day.
