A teacher asks her class to use the word contagious.
Roland, the class swot, gets up and says, ‘Last year I got the measles and my Mum said it was contagious.’
‘Well done Roland,’ says the teacher. ‘Can anyone else try?’
Katie, a sweet little girl with pigtails says, ‘My Gran says there’s a bug going round and it’s contagious.’
‘Well done, Katie,’ says the teacher. ‘Anyone else?’
Little Johnny jumps up and says, ‘Our next door neighbor is painting his house with a 4 cm brush and my Dad says it will take the contagious.’
