"Hi my name’s Mrs. Duncan. How are you? I hope you are well. Today I’m going to tell you a story about shapes. When I was first born, my parents didn’t tell me that my head was circular and round. That’s something that I learned in school. They didn’t teach me that my Toys”R”Us ABC blocks were square-shaped, that my favorite Barbie rocking chair rocked back and forth because it had a semi-circle at the bottom, or that their favorite breakfast food—eggs—are oval shaped. How could they keep all that knowledge to themselves! And I definitely was not told that my breakfast table was rectangular. But, in Kenwood Elementary School I was always asked what shape my kitchen table was. My parents never asked me that question. Well that’s all for today. I really enjoyed talking to you. See you soon."
