Me: Now we’re going to end the nature talk with a very big snake– *opens bag to reveal a large ball python*

Thirty kindergartners: *screaming with excitement*

Me: Yes she is very big, does anyone know where ball pythons are from?

Kid: The woods!!

Me: Yes, they do like the woods where they’re from. It’s a very big continent. Who knows what continent you find them on?

Another kid: The sun!!

Me: That’s … in space, so no

Yet another kid: Earth!!!

Me: Yes … that’s definitely the planet they and we are on! The snake is from the same place giraffes and lions are from …

Several kids: The zoo!!!!

Me: A continent is–

Teacher, deadpan: It’s where Wakanda is

All thirty kindergartners: AFRICA

People acting like this is some statement on todays schooling when it says right in the post these are kindergartners. They’re just learning how to read and write it’s not surprising they don’t know what a continent is.

It’s more about how the teacher knew how to use the kids’ area of interest (Black Panther) to help them connect their background knowledge to the present situation.

Also it’s just funny.
