A funny for the day

Here're a few of the sentences one of my students came up with. We were doing grammar using participial phrases like "Gasping for breath, she came to the surface."

"Jumping into the air, the elf couldn't help celebrating making his first toy."

"After bringing sexy back, Justin Timberlake was so tired he had to take an afternoon nap."

I assume this was based on his saying he had done this--and Prince getting angry, saying sexy had been around for quite a while, thank you. Do you see now how, even though I'm tired, I'm so excited that I get to have this kind of interaction with my students every day? It's the best.

The JT sentence is one of the best I've ever read. Props to that kid!! She will go far in life:)

Have a great weekend.

JT totally deserves a nap (and a trophy). I missed sexy so much.
