Every teacher's keys clank against their ID badge like we're a tiger that has been belled. Yesterday, during my prep, I was clanging down the hall and a 4th grader (she wasn't mine last year, but I know her) was hiding around a corner, obviously dodging going to class.
I said hello to her, calling her by name.
She said, "Mrs. Davis! Hi! I love your shirt! It looks so good on you! It makes you look so pretty!"
I 100% knew that she was using flattery to keep from getting into trouble and it 100% worked out. I said thank you and she went back to class.
These kids are pretty smart!
