A teacher was instructing her students on grammar, and today's topic was how to distinguish between past, future, and present tenses.

"I walked the dog" the teacher wrote on the board...

"past tense!" little Jimmy answers

"Very good!" replies the teacher

then she writes on the board, "I will go shopping"

"Future tense!" little Jimmy answers.

"Very good!" the teacher says. "If you get the next one correct you'll get an A"!

she writes "I am beautiful" on the board.

Little Jimmy looks at the board, pauses, looks at the teacher, and then replies "Past Tense".

Little Jimmy got an F.
