Apparently spit balls were an issue with the sub. So, today I explained to the kids why we don't make spit balls...This was mostly sufficient to get kids to chose not to play with spit balls (and yes, I separated germs and bacteria for effect).
I also told them about the perils of playing with straws (up the nose) and pen casing (ink in the mouth).
I predict a spit ball-less future for our class.
straws up the nose? really?
ReplyDeleteYep... major safety risk!
ReplyDeleteAlso it might be noted that the accuracy of spitwads is iffy, at best, which often lands the spitt-er in even greater peril of punishment due to collateral damage.
ReplyDeleteAhh... not covered previously, but important nonetheless ;)
