A group of kids new to kindergarten were trying very hard to become accustomed to the first grade. The biggest hurdle was that the teacher insisted on NO baby talk.
"You must use "Big People" words" she was always reminding them.
She asked Chris what he had done over the weekend. "I went to visit my Nana" he replied.
"No, Chris, you went to visit your GRANDMOTHER. Use "Big People" words", she said.
She then asked Mitchell what he had done. "I took a ride on a choo-choo" he told her.
"No, you took a ride on a train" she corrected him. "You must remember to use "Big People" words.
Then she asked Alex what he had done. "I read a book" he replied.
"That's wonderful" said the teacher. "What book did you read"?
Alex thought hard about it, then puffed out his chest, and with great pride he said ...
"Winnie the SHIT!!!"
