Jokes

One day our German class was unusally talkative despite repeated warnings, and our teacher was becoming rather exasperated. After what must have been the sixth or eighth warning, he raised his voice to declare, "Allright! The next person who talks is going to be severely castigated." The class was then very quiet for a few seconds, at least until a girl in the front row asked the teacher, "Mr. T--, how are you going to do that to a girl?"

From a Geography A Level Project:

"The town contains several places to buy food such as a grocers, butcher and a delicate essence."

A Level Upper Sixth lesson on Population Geography.

Teacher "We're now going to have a look at the U.N. Population Conference, Cairo, Egypt in 1995". Student "Where was it held?"

Teacher to new student who has just transferred schools - "Did you do many fieldtrips when you were in Penzance?"

Student, after a few moments of reflection, "Yes, we did a lot of trips - but I don't think we went to many fields".
