New Story From 5th Grade Teacher: Germ Intestine

One day a few weeks ago I was taking my third graders to the bathroom and one of the boys starts coughing and spitting and making all kinds of noises. I said, "What's the matter??" and he said, "Can I go rinse my mouth out? There's something gross in it!" So, of course, I told him to go. He comes back out of the bathroom and the conversation went like this:

Me: "What was in your mouth?"
him: "Germ intestine."
Me: "Germ intestine? What's that?"
him: "You know, that stuff in the bottle on your desk."
Me: "Hand sanitizer?"
him: "Yeah, that. It was on my hands and I got it in my mouth"
