Halitosis: a term used to describe noticably unplesant odors exhaled in breathing

My students came back from "intervention time" all hyped up today.  They had listened to the story Dog Breath!: The Horrible Trouble with Hally Tosis  By: Dav Pilkey  The story is about a nice dog named Hally Tosis with a big problem.  She has terrible breath (halitosis)! My students were asked to write about the ways they would try to get rid of their dog's halitosis.  Needless to say they came up with some very interesting, funny and sometimes colorful responses.  Of course this was the day I was getting observed by the school principal.  Our principal came into the room with my 6 students quietly sitting at a kidney shaped table sorting word families like -ack, -an, -at and -ap.  The clock struck 1 'o clock and it was time to return to homerooms.  My class comes bursting through the door in a boisterous manner.  One boy in my class gets extremely goofy when it comes to some subjects and he is exceptionally animated in his story-telling.  "Mrs. F!" He yells, holding a paper to my face, pointing to each word as he reads.  "I will lake (take) my dog to my room I will giv Him a Spacin (spanking)" Well, we were off to a great start with the principle watching!  Maybe I will get bonus points for settling my students down for math in front of the SmartBoard in what seemed to be record time. (My co-worker and I laughed later when I told her the story. She said, “After I sent them back today I thought, ‘That’s right, today she’s getting observed . . . ’ ”) 
Some other responses:
“I can get rid of my dog’s halitosis. I can poot sampoo in her moth. I can mack her eat a bar of sope. I can tack her to the vet. I can sel her to someone els. I can tack her to doktr scool. I can brush her teeth with a brush I can ues to brush my hare.”
“I can get rid of my dog’s halitosis. I can make it eat smelly stickers. I can make him rich. I would put hot soss in his mouth. I would make him ride a bike so he would go brethles. I would take him to a scary move so he would barck his breth away. I would put Axe deordant in his mouth. (This child has older brothers) I would make him go biy a dragane when it’s breathing out fire. I would make him eat 100 ice cream cones.” (This one went on for 2 pages!)
“I can get rid of my dog’s halitosis. Make wind go in his mouth. Put cinder, air, shaving creem, hot sos, huny and muny. 4000 galins of milk in, too! 1000000 ice creem conse, fire, 100 kangroo’s, 100 book, 50 panguins, 10 gas stashis, 100 desk’s, 100 zebra’s, all snowflake’s, 3 <student’s name>, <student’s name>, and 300 <student’s name>, too!  5000 dinoserse, and 10000 shell’s, too.”  (As you can tell, we’re still working on how to use apostrophes properly)
Hope the writings made you laugh, or at least smile.  Can you see why I LOVE teaching 1st grade?!
