I Never Would Have Believed It...

I saw something this evening that I frankly always thought was a myth, an apocryphal story heard by virtually every school age child (and probably told by many as well), but certainly not something that was literally true. I saw a dog (in this case Andromeda, seen above in an unrelated photo) eat a kid's homework (in this case, my nephew Ben's math worksheet). As a teacher, I now find myself in the unexpected and unappealing position of no longer being able to dismiss out-of-hand this time-honored excuse the next time it is proffered by one of my students. Thanks a lot Andromeda!
