Dr. Seuss Does Sympathy

The teacher who was supposed to mentor me got called back home for a family emergency last Monday so I've taken her place and just been winging it in her absence. Today I had to tell the class that their teacher's father passed away yesterday and, in their spare moments, they should consider making condolence cards. This one really stuck out:

Welcome back
Have a snack
It's too bad
About your Dad.

I sent it back for a rewrite but, in keeping with my positive teaching philosophy, I did give kudos for the rhyme scheme.

Bahasa Indonesia Word of the Day:  jodho= soul mate
