'I don't know the sound a lemon makes': 35+ Students who had extra creative answers to their teacher's questions

"I mean, it was a true answer, just not what I was looking for," one teacher admitted. They were among thousands of educators who answered one redditor's question to r/AskReddit: "Teachers of Reddit, what's the funniest answer you've gotten from a student that technically wasn't wrong?"

Educators of kids from preschool to college had some great stories to share. As a teacher, you spend hours every day with the same kids. You get to know their family background, their favorite hobbies, and watch as they create friend groups. While some teachers prefer to lecture, it's helpful to get students involved in the lesson through engaging questions. It's a surefire way to make sure students aren't asleep at their desks throughout the class.

These teachers below told us some of their most funny and wholesome stories of the exchanges they had with their students. Young kids are so bright that it can surprise you! They can effortlessly think outside the box, and their creativity is in full bloom. Even if they pretended to be annoyed, I think most teachers love when kids give goofy answers.

Up next, this grandpa really wanted to bond with their grandkid, so they started a car project together… but as the grandkid shared, " We eventually found out what Grandpa Kevin had done."
