Being a teacher means that you have to put up with every silly thing students come up with. And believe me, it’s not always easy. However, that’s part of the job and it can even make you smile sometimes.
When this teacher asked a simple question, she got a wrong answer, which made her angry, especially because the student was confident that he was right. When he gave her the last answer, the teacher wasn’t ready for it.
Teacher: “If I gave you two cats and another two cats and then another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven!”
Teacher: “No no, listen carefully… If I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven.”
The teacher rubs her temples and takes a deep breath.
Teacher: “Come on Johnny, you’re better than this. Let me put it to you differently. If I gave you two apples, and another two apples and another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Six.”
Teacher: “Good. Now, if I gave you two cats, and another two cats and then another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven!”
Teacher: “Johnny, wherein the heck do you get seven from?!?”
Johnny: “Because I’ve already got a freaking cat!”
Hope this funny story will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
