Cha Cha

So about a month ago I was required to give a group of kindergarteners a math lesson for my Math Methods class. I was a little nervous, to say the least, since I was being critiqued by one of my ECE (Shorthand for Early Childhood Education) Professors. I wanted the math lesson to go off without a hitch and have the students leaving with a better understanding of the content. However, as teachers, we know that this does not always happen. In the middle of the lesson I noticed a little girl with her shirt hiked up under her chin exposing her stomach and she had her leggings pulled out in front of her. I quietly told her to pull her leggings up and put her shirt down. (In the mean time my professor is watching how I handle the situation). The little girl responds to me in a very loud whisper, "But I have a really big rash on my Cha-Cha." It was all I could do not to laugh and I looked at her with wide eyes and just said "oh ok." I then looked at my supervising professor who was cracking up with laugher behind her clipboard. After the lesson, my professor met with me to evaluate my teaching. She told me that I handled the situation better than she would have, which made me feel quite relieved.
