Funny story...

This actually happened in my class the other day and made me laugh, albeit at the expense of a student getting a question wrong. At least I was grading it alone in my classroom, though! And it was pretty adorable.

The test had Greek and Latin stems and roots, as well as vocabulary words in context using the stems. The student completed the following sentences with the incorrect, underlined words:
* The body was taken to the carnivore for the funeral preparations.
* Creeping through the forest, the mortuary hunted its next meal.

At least both words had to do with flesh and bodies!
