Santa Vs Teacher

"The teacher told her class the word of the day was 'dictate' and asked who could spell it.

George raised his hand and he spelled out, 'd-i-k-t-a-t-e.'

The teacher said, 'sorry that's wrong' Then she asked Stephen. Stephen slowly spelled out, 'd-i-c-k-t-a-t-e.'

'Sorry' says the teacher, 'that's not right either.'

Next, she asked Fiona After a slight pause Fiona began spelling, 'd-i-c-t-a-t-e.'

'Very good Fiona,' applauded the teacher, 'that's correct. Now,' the teacher continued, 'who can use this word in a sentence?'

Stephen raised his hand quick as a flash shouting, 'I know - I know,'

'OK' replied the teacher, 'please use the word Santa.'

Santa responded, 'How did my dictate last night, Jaswinder?'"
