They Grow Up So Fast

My fourth grade students have a tendency to argue with one another. Let's face it, they all have that tendency. In this particular instance, A and T have been going back and forth for about the last 15 minutes. A and T will do that...a lot. I currently have the whole class lined up in the hallway as I am bringing them to their homeroom teacher. As they well know, there is no talking in the hallway. When the battle is on though they simply do not care. We enter...

T: "Oh yeah girl, that's why yo' hair be looking all ratty!"

Mr. A: "There's no talking in the hallway."

A: "That's why yo' face got all them bumps all over it."

Mr. A: "There's no talking in the hallway."

M: "I think it's called puberty."

Mr. A: "There's no talking in the hallway."

A: "It's called acne."

Mr. A: "There's no talking in the hallway."

A: "With yo' dusty looking self."

Mr. A: "Pretty sure there's no talking in the hallway."
