Hot-chewing

Recently I've found that I forget things that are said or that happen during the day only to be reminded of them later. Often I make myself forget them because if I actually thought about it I'd burst out laughing. My little students say the funniest things but I try to forget them quickly so that I can move on. This morning I was reminded of a conversation that happened yesterday. I hadn't really understood what was happening when it happened but it finally 'clicked' in my sub-conscience and I had to smile. 

 During 'free-reading' time I looked over to see a little girl, we'll call her S, on the verge of tears (S often looks like she's debating whether or not to cry, it's pretty hilarious to watch). I quickly intervened and asked what happened. 

K: "It was an accident!" (Oh great, this is never easy...)

Me: Ok, it may have been an accident but what did you do? Why is she upset?

S: 'She...She...." (English is still not great in tense situations)

K: "I hot-chewed on her, but not on purpose!"

Me: "you what?!?" (this was a new one for me, what the heck was she trying to say?)

I looked back to S, K repeated her explanation, I still looked confused "What is 'hot-chewing'?". It wasn't clicking. 

Finally K gave an example of what she did; "ahhh, ahhh, ahhchoooo! (insert sneeze sound here). 

Oh.... Gotcha... You sneezed on her..... I gave S a wet-wipe and tried not to smile (until they went to recess).
