I came across this interesting story!:>)

My five-year old students are learning to read.
Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,'Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!'

I took a deep breath, then asked...'What did you call it?

'It's a frickin' elephant!
It says so on the picture!'

And so it does...



' A f r i c a n Elephant '


Hooked on phonics! Ain't it wonderful?
