things students say

A student, while revising a paper and focusing her thoughts on using precision in her word choice, approached me for help and said,

"Mrs. Crawford, I was thinking that you looked like an oracle of vocabulary..."

HA! I love my job.

Thanks, Tiffany. I hope there was a compliment in there somewhere. Her delivery made it seem more like a clever quip, but I laughed when I replied.

That's quite different from what your Lee students used to say/write. I bet the quotes from your current students' papers aren't near as entertaining :)
