I was told that children of different ages were in different "grades" in school -- first grade was when you were six, fifth grade was when you were ten, etc.
However, my birthday is in February, which is in the middle of the school year. When I was in Kindergarten, I started getting increasingly worried right before my sixth birthday because I thought that after my kindergarten class held the usual in-class party for me, my teacher would pick me up, physically drop-kick me out the door to the classroom, and leave me to find my way to the first grade classroom by myself.

in the first grades I used to believe that my teacher didn't sleep, go to the bathroom, eat, have family or kids, have home. It was a sensation when I discovered that she was a human being like me. I couldn't come out of the shock for several weeks.

When I was in elementary school in kindergarten till first, the vice principal was named Mr. Ebneth. I couldn't pronounce it right, so I called him Mr.EggBreath! Since I was just 5, I didn't get in trouble, he just laughed. ^-^

I used to believe that one of my schools supply teachers was actually a dog-person, because of her jowls. I used to think she would go into the supply closets and morph into a dog once everyone had left school.
i used to think that at night all of my teachers turned into my soft toys so they could keep and eye on me.

In first grade my teacher told the entire class that she was 104 y.o. like kids we believed her. I told my mom and brother. And my brother who had her 15 years before told me jokingly that she was 104 when he was there to. I was confused but for some reason I continued to believe that she was 104 until my mom later confermed that when I was there she was about 50.
When i was in primary school, i used to belive that the teachers were robots, and were turned off and locked in the cupbord when the wern't used!

when i was in the 1st grade i used to think that my mother would wear something to make herself look thin and a mask and come to school to teach me and so i used to keep giving my class teacher wierd looks.

Every Friday at my school we would always have chocolate milk instead of regular milk, so that morning I had drank my milk but it was expired. The teacher had always said if we were sick to run to the bathroom and you didn't have to ask. I was always a good kid and I thought it was rude to just walk out of the room and I raised my hand to ask if I could go to the restroom. She told me she would answer my question after she had finished her lesson. I put my hand down but I wasn't feeling any better so I raised my hand several more times and got the same response so I got up to ask her if I could go to the restroom and right when I got to her I threw up all over her shoes, the whole class laughed and the teacher almost cried because her shoes were new. I was sent to the nurse, while I was visiting her ,the principle came in to ask why I didn't go to the bathroom when I first felt sick. I told him I tried but the teacher wouldn't let me go so I thought that she got what she deserved for not letting me leave, he agreed and my mother was called to the school. We had a meeting and I ended up changing teachers. I was glad because I didn't really like her anyway.

When I was in primary school, maybe 7 or 8, I was in a school assembly and our principal was making a speech. He was just joking around with us when he said one of the secretaries at the school was a ninja and that we had to keep it a secret. I really, truly believed the woman was a ninja and that if we told anyone, we'd get detention.

My mother is a primary school teacher and she takes the junior class in her school. We went to that same school. When my little brother was about to start school he was hyperactive and bad tempered. She really didn't want to teach him so she told him it was illegal for parents to teach their children. He still believes it.

i used to believe that mississippiora was my kindergarten teacher's first name. turns out she just married a guy named sippiora...

I used to believe that teachers could make up their own name when they became teachers, I didn't realize it was their last name. I thought they could just pick one. Such as Ms. Smith.....

When I was in Kindergarten and First Grade, I used to think that pencil sharpeners "refilled" the lead in pencils. You stick the pencil in, the sharpener puts on a new point. But this idea was finally shattered for me in art class in First Grade, when I used colored pencils for the first time. I was amazed that the pencil sharpener also stocked COLORED lead! I was so excited that I went and found the teacher to announce my findings to her. She looked at me like I was crazy and explained to me how a pencil sharpener REALLY works. What a disillusioning moment....

I used to believe that teachers' first names were just 'Miss' or 'Mr'. I used to feel sorry for them that they had no proper name. I also thought that they lived in the walk-in cupboard. (That's why we weren't allowed in there.)
