A math teacher welcomed a new French exchange student into her class and then started teaching a fraction lesson.
The French exchange student raised his hand and said, “Excuse me, ma’am, but I don’t know how to say fractions. How do you say those?”
“Easy,” says the teacher, “just say the top number, and then the bottom number is read as an ordinal number. For example, 2/3 is “two-thirds”, 3/4 is ‘three-fourths’, and 2/5 is ‘two-fifths.”
“Thanks, I understand, “said the exchange student.
“Good,” the teacher said, then asked the student, “how do you say 4/8?”
“Should I reduce?” asked the boy.
“That would be best,” said the teacher.
“One-second,” said the boy.
“Take as long as you need,” said the teacher.
LOL!!
Teacher Believes Jimmy Cheated On His Test
One day in class, Ms. Thompson pulled Jimmy over to her desk after an exam and said, “Jimmy, I have a feeling you cheated on your tests.
Jimmy was amazed and asked Mrs. Thompson to prove it.
“Well,” Ms. Thompson said, “I was looking over your test and the question was, ‘Who was our first president? “and the little girl sitting next to you, Penny, wrote ‘George Washington’ and so did you.”
“So? Everyone knows that he was the first president.”
“Now wait a minute,” Ms. Thompson said. “The next question was, ‘Who f-reed the s-laves? “Penny wrote ‘Abraham Lincoln’ and so did you.”
“Well, I read the history book last night and remembered that,” Jimmy said.
“Wait, wait,” Ms. Thompson said. “The next question was, ‘Who was president during the Louisiana Purchase?’
Penny wrote “I don’t know” and you wrote, “Me neither.”
LOL! He probably thought he would get away with it too!
The teacher always knows.
Hope this funny story makes you smile! Have a nice day!!
