The kindergardeners at the school where I'm interning have some serious sass to them. My supervising teacher says they're "cheeky." Friday I got a taste of that.
One of the songs we were teaching them had a solo part where each kindergardener responded alone (good assessment tool!).
The song went like this:
"Is So-and-so knocking on my door?"
And So-and-so would answer either yes or no in a simple sol-me pattern.
Before starting the song, we did a quick name review. We went around the circle, and each kid said his name (mostly for my sake!).
Sophie, Josh, Tyler, Annabelle, etc.
A handful of normal names.
And then...
Justin Bieber.
Lady Gaga.
I kid you not.

Nearly Nostalgic
Recently I heard of a talent show theme that surprised me.
The 90s.
Spice Girls (which I was never allowed to listen to, for good reason!), boy bands, Celine Dion, electronic drum beats, lots of synth. Anyone?
First of all, I can think of so many better decades to resurrect. (Really, any other decade is significantly better musically!) Secondly, am I really getting to be so old that the years of my childhood are being mocked? I feel like the 90s just happened! Isn't it 2001 or something?
Just wait until my children see the hand-painted, matching shorts and blouses that I wore...
