Bubbler Fish??
So ok I like a good story just about as much as the next person but this one made my day…..
In an attempt to get a group of Kindergarten students to return to class, and not gather around the bubbler, a teacher tells them to “save some water for the fish”. The children stop almost at once and look at the teacher with wonder, “what fish?”, the students ask. The teacher prpceeds to tell them that fish live in the bubbler and need to have water too. The students ask how she knows this and he tells them that is where she got her fish from. The children ask to see the “bubbler fish” which the teacher shows them immediatly. Since that day this group of students continues to look in the bubblers around the school hoping to see and catch their own “bubbler fish”. Each day they are unsuccessful or have had a “sighting” they go to see the teacher at the end of the day and to see her “bubbler fish”.
Today when I saw this group of students enter her class and ask about the “bubbler fish” and to say they alomst caught one, I must have had a look of confusion on my face and the teacher proceded to tell me the above story of the “bubble fish”. No sooner had I left her room did I come upon the group of students standing at a bubble letting the cool water run down the drain. When I asked them what they were doing they told me they were giving the “bubbler fish” enough water for the weekend so he didn’t get hungry.
Oh to be a child again and to have that sense and belief that a fish can appear out of a bubbler!
Good luck to you all in your quest for your “bubbler fish” what ever you make it out to be!
