Thursday. French.
The way the lesson plans were written, it sounded like the teacher had been having issues with the class. So, I made sure to watch them carefully and try to keep them on task.
It wasn't quite the end of the period, and they started packing up...
Me: "You've still got, like, six minutes left of class."
Them: "Six... seven..."
I walked right into that one.
Just in case you were wondering how "six seven" is going, it's still going. Middle school classes are worse, but the high schoolers are in on the game too, just not as obnoxious about it.
But something I just realized, as in last Friday... The last two digits of my cell phone number are six and seven. Because, of course.
(No way am I giving that out to the kiddos, though.)
Lol, you should have known better!
ReplyDeleteI don't get the humor in this particular trend, I guess I'm too old lolol!
ReplyDeleteIt makes no sense. Truly.
DeleteWhen I was in junior high we were fond of saying ”no soap, radio”. I think it must have been the punchline of a joke at some time, but the joke was forgotten. Still, we all laughed whenever someone said it, for no discernible reason.
DeleteWow, that's... Wow. Yeah, sometimes the jokes make no sense. Or, you had to be there.
DeleteI think 6, 7 was in a Saturday Night Live skit this past Saturday. It’s interesting how this fad has reached out so far Past the intended school audience
ReplyDeleteYes, it's positively everywhere. Amazing how it escaped containment.
DeleteEvery time my grandson says 6 7, I say 8 9 and he's slowed saying it to me. lol
ReplyDeleteI'm also old and don't know what 6-7 means. Need someone to explain it. Question is though, did they continue getting ready to leave or were you able to get them back to work? Back in my day if we got ready before the bell, we had to stay after that many minutes which could make you late for next class, where you would get in trouble all over again. Showing my age here I guess, but schools and teachers were much more strict back in the day.
ReplyDeleteIt means nothing. Really. Some kid said it a certain way in a video that went viral, and now everyone is mimicking it.
DeleteI was going to call clean up a couple minutes after that. They had papers to turn in and phones to retrieve, so they need a couple minutes to do that (unless I want to make them late for their next class, which I do not want to do).
:-)
ReplyDeleteSome kind of poetic justice? :) 6-7!
ReplyDeleteThe 6 7 thing is so ridiculous and meaningless that I'm starting to find it funny :p Thankfully, the kids don't say it too often!
ReplyDeleteSorry but I didn't get de joke...
