I use these with students through out our school! I will just stop them and say, "Hey, I have a question..... Why don't eggs tell jokes? ... intrigued... they look at me..." I think it is a great way to reset and lighten their mood. If I have them printed out, then I will give it to them so they can use it with their friends. A gift that keeps on giving! School is such a grind at times. I love that you are sharing these with us! They are great!

Hi Ashley,
Thank you so much for sharing how you’re using these jokes with your students! You’re so right, school can be a grind at times, and sometimes all it takes is a little laugh to turn the day around.
Your students are so lucky to have someone like you who takes the time to make their days a little brighter.
Thanks again for sharing this! It makes my day to hear the ways these jokes are being used. Teachers are underpaid and undervalued (I was one for many years). We need more people like you! Keep up the amazing work and know you’re making a difference! 😊
