Two days ago I gave a warm up question that said: "1. What's up?" The next two questions were math questions, don't worry, but I like to keep the kids entertained every once in a while. Some students raised their hand and asked how to answer the question... Most people did NOT answer "Not much," or "Nothing." Almost everyone got all smart-alecky and answered literally: "The sky," "the ceiling," etc. One person that I called on got very literal:

"The ceiling, the floor, a classroom, another ceiling [we are in a two story building], the sky, birds, clouds, space, stars..." and this cute little wandering-lost-puppy of a girl pipes in with eyes wide "and then Jesus."

Haha, you had to hear her to understand, because she's not religious or anything, maybe Catholic background, but it certainly made me smile.
