We have discovered the most amazing thing about hiccups over the last two weeks. For some reason, lots of girls have had the hiccups lately and we have discovered an amazing, foolproof cure for hiccups that takes effect immediately.
It all started when Chloe had particularly bad hiccups. I offered her a sweet from the sweetie jar as I thought that sucking a sweet would make them go away. I took out a pink sparkle and told Chloe that she could suck the sweet in class. She took the sweet and went back to her desk. But before she sat down, she turned around and told me that her hiccups had gone. She didn't feel right keeping the sweet so she put it back in the jar. Since then, nine girls have had the hiccups. They have all rushed up to my desk, knowing that they can have a sweet from the jar. Every time I have said: "You may have this sweet right now if you hiccup again," and we have not heard another hiccup from any of them. Amazing! And I still have not had to restock the sweetie jar once because of all the hiccups. I wonder what would happen if I offered some money...maybe a R20 note?
We also discovered that Caitlin R has a very special pen. It's magic actually. I handed back some work that the girls did on the planets and Caitlin's work had disappeared. The ink had disappeared in certain parts of her page, but my ticks and comments were still there. What a clever trick Caitlin, but I don't think that you should use that pen to write your exams...just in case it disappears BEFORE I have a chance to mark your work!
Interesting!! Very interesting!!
