One of my kiddos asked me, "Ms. L, can you have a circle graph that has 100% of one thing and 0% of something else?"
THE BEST QUESTION OF LIFE.
My answer: "Why yes. Yes there is." And I proceed to draw this graph as best as I can...

I then showed my favorite picture ever to them. (Its my advanced kids. I was hoping they would get it)
They asked me, "What does meatloaf have to do with anything."
"Meatloaf is a band, geniuses. They sing a song...you know, I would do anything for love, but I won't do that."
Then Mr. Witty steps up to the plate: "Meatloaf is a band's name? That band must have been really high when they named themselves. I mean, they were all probably sitting in a circle, listening to 'Pass the Dutchie', and someone said, we should make a band. Then another guy said, Dude yes, and let's call it Meatloaf. Meatloaf is tasty."
Me: "Did you just reference a song titled "Pass the Dutchie?"
I cannot believe that conversation occured in front of me. I laughed. For a long time.
