> A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom
> of children while they were drawing. She would
> occasionally walk around to see each child's work.
>
> As she got to one little girl who was working
> diligently, she asked what the drawing was.
>
> The girl replied, "I'm drawing God."
>
> The teacher paused and said, "But no one knows
> what God looks like."

> Without missing a beat, or looking up from her

A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten
> Commandments with her five and six year olds.
>
> After explaining the commandment to "honor" thy
> Father and thy Mother, she asked, "Is there a
> commandment that teaches us how to treat our
> brothers and sisters?"
>
> Without missing a beat one little boy (the oldest
> of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."

> The children had all been photographed, and the
> teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a
> copy of the group picture.

> "Just think how nice it will be to look at it when
> you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer,
> she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
>
> A small voice at the back of the room rang out,
> "And there's the teacher, she's dead."
> A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation
> of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she
> said, "Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood,
> as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red
> in the face."
>
> "Yes," the class said.
>
> "Then why is it that while I am standing upright
> in the ordinary position the blood doesn't run into
> my feet?"
>
> A little fellow shouted,"Cause your feet ain't
> empty."
\\ > The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a
> Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of
> the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a
> note, and posted on the apple tray:
>
> "Take only ONE. God is watching."
>
> Moving further along the lunch line, at the other
> end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip
> cookies.
>
> A child had written a note, "Take all you want.
> God is watching the apples.
