To Dissect or Not Dissect

BBI Teacher's picture

 

Back in December, my parents went on vacation to the Bahamas. Uncle Al came over to babysit. I remember ditching school one day and thinking it would be easy to fool uncle Al. When I got home, he asked what I did at school that day? I just made up some stuff. I told him that I worked with some math games, read some greek mythology, dissected starfish and removed their brains, and played volleyball in gym class. He immediately knew something was wrong with my story. Do you?
