"F" Words

9:40- I point to a picture of a feather and ask the class what it is.  Little boy: "It's a leaf from a bird!"  

9:50- I ask the class to think of words with the /F/ sound in them, and we write them on the board.  The whole class is ecstatic about this activity, all squirming and shouting in excitement.
Stuart: "Fantastic Baby!"
Me: "Hahaha, okay I'll take that, what else?"
Little girl: "FRICE!"
Me: "What?! No, you're just making up words with /F/ sounds, I need real words!"
Little girl: "FROBBIT!"
Me: "Hahahahaha!  Do you mean "Frog"?"
Little boy:  "F*CK!"
Me: "F-O-X! You mean FOX!"
Stuart stands up, applauds, and shouts out, "HALLELUJAH! AMEN!"

P.E.
11:45- We play "What Time Is It Mr. Fox?" where the students ask the fox what time it is, and what ever time the fox answers, the kids may take that many steps forward, until the fox decides it's dinner time and chases the class until the child catches the new Mr. Fox.
The whole class: "WHAT TIME IS IT MR. F*CK!"
Me: "OH my Lord, NO! F-O-X! /X/! You need the /X/ sound!"
Class: "WHAT TIME IS IT MR. F*CK...X!"
