Brooke 2:10
We're approaching the end of yet another school year. Wow, congrats, guys. Can you believe it? No, my kids keep getting older. Oh, they're going to graduate soon, Brooke. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Well, did you know between all the secret note passing and the monkey bar swinging and hallway hand clap games, these kids are supposed to learn stuff, too? No. that's not fun we are asking so much of these children and if you ever went to school you might remember the academics didn't always make sense and nobody understands a young person struggled to learn quite like the teachers giving them the lessons oh my god oh poor teachers that's why a new survey asked teachers to share what's the funniest or dumbest thing a student has said or done in your class this year they're like just one
Brooke 3:03
They could share as many as they wanted, but here were some of the top responses. One middle school teacher said she was explaining sunlight and how potentially dangerous UV rays can be. And one of her students asked, if the sun's so dangerous, why did we build it? Oh, good point. Another one of Elon Musk's inventions has come back to bite us. Meanwhile, at an elementary school, one kid told his teacher that having a baby boy or girl was determined by whether or not they had an innie or outie belly button. Oh, I remember that rumor.
Unknown 3:40
I like that.
Brooke 3:41
Was that a rumor? Yeah, I remember that as a kid.
Unknown 3:43
That it was the belly button that determined it, huh? Yeah.
Brooke 3:46
Innies make girls. Audies make boys.
Unknown 3:49
Oh, no, I have an innie.
Brooke 3:49
You're about to learn a lot about yourself, Jose.
Unknown 3:51
They're close to right if they just move that into a different area.
Brooke 3:55
Yeah, anatomy is hard. I've heard a lot of kids, like, don't know how to read time on an analog clock anymore. Nowadays. But apparently it's even worse than I thought, because one high school math teacher asked her juniors, what year is it? And she heard answers from 2008 to 2012, 1985 and 2020. Until finally a student asked if she could just look it up on her phone.
