Here are a few examples of his work that I have pulled out of his back pack in the last two weeks. Maybe this will give you an idea of what poor Mrs Bischel is dealing with this year.
Assignment one: draw a volcano and label the various parts of it.
Gavin's completed assignment: Top word "Mane vane" , second word down "Volcano" Bottom left words "alot of lava" top right words, pointing to a stick figure man "running person that isn't safe". When I asked Gavin what this was his answer was "The parts of a volcano" didn't know that a stick figure and a lot of lava were really a scientific part of a volcano!
Assignment two: Read the story of the Emperors new clothes and complete the work sheet.
Question one: How would you feel if you were tricked like the emperor? Gavins answer: I would feel mad and embarrassed. Good answer!
Question two: Would you punish those who tricked you? Why or Why not? Gavin's original answer: I would pee on them! The scribble on the side originally was the teachers answer Really?!? But after I told a few people about this Gavin stole it off my table and changed the answer to I would make them smell my stinky socks and scribbled out the teachers comment Better answer?!?
Assignment three: A spelling/phonics test
Gavin was given a large sheet of paper to write this on. Yet all ten of his words are contained in a area about 3/4 inch by 3/4 of inch. As you can see the teacher has suggested he write a little larger! Her writing is the same size most people write in, if that gives you an idea of how small his writing was!
It is really hard for me to reprimand or suggest that was not a good idea, when I am smirking and giggling the whole time! Well, at least, the assignments are done right?
