My son enters 4th grade next Tuesday. In preparation, he filled out the “getting to know you” questionnaire he got from his new teacher.
Of course, I had to take a peak.
The following questions and answers from the questionnaire are true. Nothing has been changed to add humor — or correct his spelling.
—
Tell me your favorite school memory.
Feild Day
List 3 things you do well.

patiance
What’s the most exciting thing you’ve ever done?

What is one wish you have for this school year?

What is one thing you want me to know about you?

Now, I laughed out loud when I read that his one wish is a day without homework. That’s pretty good. I also cringed at his misspellings. Feild day, anyone? Patiance? I yi yi.
(I think with his bad spelling, kick-butt Lego abilities, and math skills, Will could grow up and be an engineer. And engineers usually make a good living, bad spelling or not!)
Stay tuned to hear how the first week goes. Here’s hoping the teacher has a good sense of humor!

Don’t pick on your kid for his spelling…you decided you needed to take a peak and that is spelled peek!
OMG that’s awesum. Now I know wear he got his bad spellung frum.
bahahaha!! I am dying laughing. “spellung frum”
His questionnaire isn’t too bad. Last year for 2nd grade, our son answered “What was your favorite thing of the summer” with “saw pg-13 [movies] with Dad.” Awesome. Way to impress them with our mad parenting skillz. (They had seen Transformers)
Spelling does not matter now-a-days with spell check on everything. 🙂 To be an engineer, you just need to like math and be a systematic/technical thinker. Depending on what type of job you have as an engineer, you sometimes never use the math that you’ve learned to get your degree. 🙂
Don’t sweat it, that’s what spell check and auto correct are for… and forgo math while you’re at – we have calculators now, and writing class – we type everything. So, what I am rea;;y trying to say is don’t bother sending your kid to school – he’s a genius!
