12/9

Had my X'mas lesson at Higoshi Elementary today.
I gave the grade 2 students a X'mas quiz in the beginning of the class.

Sabrina: "Quiz #1: When Santa comes, where does he put the presents?
A- On the table
B- On the bed
C- Under the X'mas tree"

I told the students that the answer is C- Under the X'mas tree
But most of the students voted B- On the bed
Then the students got really really upset.

Students: No way!!! You are wrong!!! Santa puts the presents on/near our bed!
Sabrina: ............
Homeroom teacher: ......*panic*......eee...In Japan Santa puts the presents near the bed, but in Canada Santa puts the presents under the tree.

Those kids really believe in the existence of Santa, so we tried not to ruin it...

Sabrina: "Quiz #2: What do we leave for Santa when he comes?"
A- Milk and cookies
B- Miso Soup and Onigiri (Rice ball)
C- Cake and tea"

Student 1: It must be cake and tea
Student 2: No!!! Santa will like miso soup and onigiri since he's in Japan!
