For spelling homework, students are sometimes asked to complete one of these Tic-Tac-Toe activities.
Fun, right?
I thought so, so I shared it on my blog awhile ago.
Other teachers have thought it a fun activity, too - yay! - and downloaded it.
How do I know?
Well, one of the squares asks students to send me an email with a typed list of their words.
So, naturally, I included my school email address.
{Which has the word "Kuwait" in it.}
But I forgot to delete it before I uploaded.
Since January, I've gotten about two emails a week from students in I-don't-know-where in the world, listing their spelling words.
I thought this was a funny oversight on my part.
But today, that oversight got even funnier when I received an email with this picture attached:

Now the mystery remains: Whose kitchen is this?!?!
It's funny to me that parents do not second guess as they are typing the email address - "Hmm...Kuwait? That's strange. Oh, well. Send."
