learning my own lesson...

So, this week I was super busy and stressed because I had to be observed by my head supervisor in my classroom. I had to do my own 40 minute lesson with the class. I did a lesson about Olympic nutrition. Everything went well. After the supervisor left we let the class kind of wind down and they were just asking funny questions that they could not when she was in class. One kid, Joey, gave us his own lesson....now Joey is the cutest kid, he is a little chubby, has bright blond super curly hair, and has a speech impediment that makes him sound like he is about 3...But Joey is the smartest kid in the class, he is about 2 years above grade level...a little too smart himself sometimes...so there we are answering some questions and he raises his hand..yes Joey...he stands up by his desk, "sometimes you have to be very careful and read the small writing ...companies will trick you, they say healthy, natural, sometimes organic and then there will be like hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup, or that stuff that makes your tummy hurt (rubs his belly), aspartame, like that peanut butter says natural, but it might have bad stuff in it, or a lot of salt".....so there you have it....if a 9 year can spout this off, why can't the rest of us? hahha...
