Homeschool Funny

Joys of homeschooling - grading schoolwork. One of our students was asked this on a language arts problem yesterday:

"How many different verbs can you think of that can fit in the sentence: "John hit the ball."? Replace the verb hit with other verbs that would make sense. Type some here."

The answer given:
John ate the ball.
John tried to eat the ball, yet choked on it.
John managed to eat the ball, and it came out a day later.
John has an eating disorder.

Wouldn't you want to grade homeschool schoolwork, also? ;-)
