One of our newest students recently arrived in Canada from China. Today he went on a walk with my co-worker, learning names of nouns on the street. My co-worker, J, trying to refresh his memory:
J: If there is a fire, where does the water come out of?
Fred, 16: Fire... fire... hy -- he -- uhhh?
J: Yeah, you almost got it.
Fred: Fire hose-tree!

Kevin: Terrence, I'm scared.

Kevin: Well, there's this really popular girl in my class. She's apparently the most popular girl in the whole of Grade 5.
Me: So why are you scared? Is she being mean to you?
Kevin: She bit me.
