Interesting Fact Day

So, as a class, we are doing a countdown to the end of the school year. We do a letter of the alphabet every day for the last 26 days of school. "I" day was "Interesting Fact" day. The students were encouraged to find an interesting fact to share with the class, and then each was given an opportunity to share. Sarah came to me at the beginning of the day with a big red bag. She told me that she wanted the class to guess what was in her bag before she shared her fact. I was a little worried, but not too bad. On the bag, it said, "Orthotics and Prosthetics". So, I happen to be one of those people who doesn't like blood, and I don't like medical things at all! But, I figured it couldn't be too bad. So, when it came time to share, she asked the class if anyone knew what was in her bag. Of course none of them did! As a side note, her mom comes in and helps every Friday. So then she says, "I don't want you to look at my mom weird after I show you this." Now, I am starting to get worried! So, she opens the bag and pulls out a prosthetic leg (from the knee down... foot and all)! Oh my heavens! I was starting to feel a little "weirded" out! I didn't laugh, because that would be inappropriate, but I wanted to! But, it gets even better! After school that day, I was leaving my room to go up to the office, and Sarah came running in! "I forgot my mom's leg!" Oh boy... well we can't be forgetting that now can we?!
