What’s in the glass?
Milk, half full
Margarita, half empty
Coca-Cola, half full
Any kind of diet drink, half full
Coffee, half empty
Sangria, half empty
Ask a teen, “I don’t know.”
Ask a toddler, they spilled the glass
Ask a teacher, too full, no time for a bathroom break

Haha. I love the different viewpoints here, from the toddler to the teacher. The last line really made me laugh. As a culminating activity in one of my teacher training classes, a group of us created a board game that represented the journey of a teacher. One of the spaces on the board was a toilet, but you weren’t allowed to land on it! Fun slice!

A board game, how fun! I’m imagining a Monopoly style game: skip the bathroom, do not pass the principal’s office, pay $200, lol!

This is EXACTLY what it was like! There was a clay toilet on the side of the path, but there was no way to get to it! 🙂

Hahaha, this is great! You do a great job of reminding us that it’s all in your perspective, and that what we’re talking about can affect that perspective. I love your ending line-so true!

Years ago, one of my teachers posed this question and I, of course, was labeled a pessimist. I. consider myself a realist though, so naturally, it was half empty because most people I know prefer a full glass, lol!

This is great, love the wordplay and the structure is perfect. Not to mention I agreed with each take. 🙂

Thank you. I meant to draw this out a little longer, but it seemed to work better this way.

This post would be a great opener for a lesson on perspective, along with “They All Saw a Cat”, for middle/ high schoolers! (Elementary kids may not get the alcohol references, lol.)

I love how different beverages prompt different responses. And that last line–perfect!
