Children make me laugh. I have heard some real gems in my class. This week, I was witness to another.
In the Grade Four Mathematics class we were discussing what the term 'probability' means. We also spoke about the terms certain, likely, equally likely, unlikely and impossible'.
I was struggling to find an example that the pupils in my class could relate to. Until one of the boys in my class intervened. He didn't seem to struggle...
'The probability of you becoming pregnant is impossible," he said confidently.
I was slightly shocked but covered it well. At least, I think I did.
'However,' he says 'The probability of you becoming engaged is very likely."
Evidently Mathematics is on my side.
