Why My Teacher Pats Her Tummy
By: Mrs. JonesSlide2
I
now know why my teacher pats her tummy.
But I had to become a detective to find out.Slide3
It
all started at the beginning of the school year. My teacher, Mrs. Jolly was very happy. Slide4
She
smiled often and was very friendly, but I noticed she would pat her tummy. Slide5
Some
mornings she would come to school, set her breakfast down on her table and pat her tummy.Slide6
At math centers and story time, she would pat her tummy.Slide7
Later in the morning, she would eat snacks. She would eat fruit snacks, crackers and even pickles! Then she would pat her tummy. Slide8
At recess, she would put on her coat. It seemed like she was outgrowing it because every day it was a little tighter. Slide9
When
her coat was zipped, she would pat her tummy.Slide10
At lunch time, she would eat a cheese sandwich, chips and other things in her lunch bag. When she was finished, she would pat her tummy.Slide11
She would go to the bathroom often.Slide12
And
pat her tummy.Slide13
I even noticed that other teachers would come by and pat her tummy. Slide14
One day, I could not help but wonder why Mrs. Jolly’s tummy was getting bigger and she would always pat it. Slide15
So I raised my hand with the question I had to have answered. Slide16
Mrs. Jolly called my name and out came my question, “Mrs. Jolly, why do you always pat your tummy?”Slide17
A smile came across Mrs. Jolly’s face. Slide18
She stopped what she was doing and told the whole class that she had something to tell us. At first, I thought I was in trouble for asking why she was patting her tummy. I mean, maybe it was just always itchy.Slide19
She looked at the class and said, “I pat my tummy because a baby is growing inside.” Slide20
Why didn’t I think of that? I remember when my mom had my little sister that she would pat her tummy. I guess it is a mommy thing. Slide21
So there
you
go. The mystery was solved, and I now know why my teacher always pats her tummy. She is trying to wake her baby up. Slide22
