Looking for a sandwich

Before the first day of school was over I received my 25th student.   

It was a long exhausting day!

As the students entered class, I showed them where to place their lunchboxes, asked them to put all the supplies they brought in in a large bag and place it in the corner of the room then gave them a coloring sheet to complete while I talked to their parents.

On parent asked why the supplies were going in the corner and laughed when I explained that I couldn't let them have the scissors and glue before we had talked about the correct times to use them.

When it was time for lunch, I had the kids with lunch boxes line up first.  One little girl had a small freak out because she needed to get her sandwich.  I asked where it was and she pointed to the corner where all the supplies were. 

I took a deep breath and walked to the corner with her asking why she hadn't put her lunchbox where the others were.  Using her 5 year old reasoning, she explained that it wasn't a lunchbox it was a sandwich.

We found the bag with her supplies and she quickly pointed to the box of sandwich baggies and proudly said, "See!"

I couldn't help but laugh as I explained that while there was a picture of a sandwich on the box there wasn't actually a sandwich on the inside.
