Homework Destruction
I was in third grade when I heard a tale, a tale I cannot believe. The teacher asked for our homework, little Susan said my hamster ate it. I never knew hamsters would eat homework, Susan got off with a warning. Next week our homework was due, the teacher said to put it on her desk. Little Johnny sat quietly in his seat, as we all filed by with our papers. The teacher asked Johnny where is your paper, oh my dog ate it. With an upset look the teacher said, not original so here is more work for you. Next week our homework was due, I had stayed up way too late. What in the world was I going to do, I had no paper to turn in. I stood up and said, teacher the flaming pterodactyl ate my homework. The teacher was laughing so hard, I think she peed herself and I was off the hook.
