Many yeas ago before computers were common place in the classroom. I had my students do a 5 minute oral presentation on someone famous in history.
One of the boys was assigned to do a report on Joan of Arc.
The next morning the boy, dropped his encyclopedia on this desk and exclaimed, "How am I going to do a report on this lady?? She was captured by cannibals who beat her up and ate her."
By the expression on my face and the rest of the classroom, he knew he had our undivided attention.
"Really Miss. it is right here, she was beatified and cannibalized and her feast day is May 1st.
LOL....I very recently heard a supposedly true story that took place in a Catholic Elementary School...The student's were provided their paper, crayons, markers, etc. and given the assignment of drawing their interpretation of the Nativity.
Most of the results were relatively prototypical manger scenes, to include one boy's who depicted the Christ child, Mary, Joseph, livestock, angels and the three kings...with the conpicuous addition of an obviously obese, and seemingly incongruous male off to one side of the drawing.
As the nun walked about the class she noted the figure and asked the boy who the extra figure was, he looked at her as if she should already know, then answered, "It's Round John Virgin!"
LOL!!
