peanut butter jelly time

many people in hungary have never tasted peanut butter because it's very difficult - if not impossible - to find here. one of my fantastic friends in the US, marlena, sent me some of the delicious spread - one jar of crunchy (ew) and one jar of creamy (yum!). i made sure to tell my students my preference reguarding texture, but some silly kids still ate crunchy.

i taught them the songs i know about peanut butter and jelly. i couldn't remember all the words to that "first ya take the peanuts and you smash 'em, you smash 'em" song but there are others.


i made them sing.


these kids didn't like being on camera as much as the other class. but i bribed them... like all good teachers do, right?


it's supposed to be a rap. hahaha, they are good sports!

i can't believe you made them sing for their supper! crayz teacher. but good job for introducing them to PB&J! and way to go to marlena to sending it to you! also - i'm glad none of them were allergic to peanuts, or that would not have been a fun class.
