sol17 #17: it looks like a butt!

I drew two overlapping circles on the board, all ready to discuss the similarities and differences of house cats and lions with one of my second grade groups.

"Has anyone seen a chart like this before?" I asked.

"It looks like a... like a...." she says, hesitantly giggling. "Like a butt!"

Hahahaha! I never thought about that before, but a Venn Diagram really kind of looks like a butt.

I totally appreciated the "laugh so hard 'til you cry" moment this morning!
