The Tale....

...of Mr. Morton is a clip from "School House Rock!". I don't know if anyone remembers it, but I do and use the grammar and multiplication ones in my class room, at least in the last three classes I have had.

'The Tale of Mr. Morton' has to do with the subject and predicates, but mostly the subject. See Mr. Morton is the subject of the sentence and what the predicate says he does. This is usually the first video clip I show and it has always been the favorite and the one most asked to see. This might have something to do with the name.

Why do I write about this you ask? Well, other than the obvious of this being my last name. Every single class I ever had makes a statement about this being my husband. And I always have to info them that if Miss Morton ever gets married, that her last name will change and no longer be Morton. They always listen, but I don't think they get it. I just wish you all could be in my classroom and experience this moment each time it has happened.

Just makes me smile and see and feel GOD. It just amazes me how it is the exact same thing each time I show it. Just funny and very interesting.
