At Open House this year, I had a fun little conversation with a fourth grader from my class and her second grade sister.
Me: Wow! That’s a nice diorama. That’s a good grade on it too! Did you make it?
2nd Grader: No. My mommy did.
4th Grader (trying to save face): You helped!
2nd: No I didn’t.
4th: Sure you did. You colored and painted.
2nd: No I didn’t.
4th: You told Mom where to put stuff in the shoebox.
2nd: No I didn’t. She made it after I went to bed.
4th: Well, you’re not supposed to admit THAT to a teacher! You have a lot to learn.
