A teacher tells her primary three class that the new word for the day is contagious and she’d like the children to demonstrate their understanding of the word by using it in a sentence of their choice.
She asks wee Joe if he can explain what the word means and he says, "Yes Miss. My Mammy says to stay away from kids with chicken pox because they’re contagious so they are." The teacher says, "That’s great Joe, well done son."
Then she picks Angela, who says, "My Mammy and Daddy were at the comedy club the other night at a show and they said that everybody was laughing their legs off and that the atmosphere was contagious." And the teacher says, "Excellent Angela, good use of a difficult word."
Then she notices that wee Eamonn has his hand up at the back of the class, "Yes Eamonn," she says. Eamonn says, "Miss, the other day me and my Daddy were out playing football in the garden and we saw the old man next door up a ladder painting the house with a two inch brush, covering a wee tiny bit at a time. I says to my Daddy “Daddy what’s he at ?” so my Daddy says “He’s trying to paint the house so he is but I’ll tell you something wee man, if he’s planning to finish it using a two inch brush it’ll take the contagious”.
