Every year around this time, the children begin to ask how I'm feeling. They are anticipating my sore throat and the need for a substitute teacher. Fortunately, our favorite substitute was once again available for duty. Ms. Frizzle has an unusual sense of fashion, and you never know what will happen when she visits your classroom. She is always fabulously accessorized, and this year, her outfit featured paintbrush and paint palette earrings, with tiny metal paint buckets on her shoes.
Frizzle lesson of the day: No matter how perfectly they accessorize your outfit, it is a bad idea to attach tiny me
tal buckets filled with wet paint to your shoes. Paint will drip from the tiny buckets onto your carpet on your way out the door to work and make a not-so-tiny bright blue schmear as you attempt to clean it up.
Happy Halloween!
