You Know You Teach First Grade When…
– “You are a great artist!” is the complement the students give you every time you draw something and it still boosts your ego.
– You must remind yourself and the six year olds, that YOU ARE THE BOSS.
– You instantly say “Wash” anytime someone sneezes.
– You have the urge to discipline children in stores. (So hard to turn it off!)
– You don’t curse at home.
-You know what a kid means when he/she tells you someone said the “i” bad word or the “s” bad word. (Idiot and stupid)
– All you have to do is say something with enthusiasm, in a high pitched voice and the kids will get excited.
– Hand sanitizer is referred to as “Hanisizer.”
– You love laminating.
– When you sing happy birthday to family members, you forget and sing the “Cha Cha Cha” part.
Cha Cha Cha Ooh Rah Rah! And a fist pump! YEAH!!!

Once Upon a Time in First Grade
I love all of these they are so true! "Hanitizer" is a popular word in our classroom too. Every time we go to recess " Ms.___ let's not forget to hanitizer before we go for lunch!" I correct them every time but they still say it lol.
I totally almost always do the cha cha cha!
My kids sing the "cha cha cha" too…but now they've made up a new part at the end…here goes…
…..Happy Birthday to you….cha, cha, cha, ooh la-la, HIIIII-YAAAAA {insert karate chop}! Does ANYONE know where this all came from, seriously?
I definitely LOL'd at the birthday cha-cha-cha comment!! I totally do that overtime and noone ever gets it!!
Rachelle-My students sing :cha, cha, cha, High-ya-funky chicken" I have no clue where they got that.
