With a grade 4 girl, we'd been working on an ostinato and writing it on the board. Later, I was teaching a grade 2 girl.
Girl [giggling]: Squashed tomato...
Me: Ah - what?
Girl [still giggling]: Squashed tomato... okay, os-ti-na-to, but we call them squashed tomatoes.
Me: Oohhh.
And then we made up one of our own.
