DAVID GREENE, HOST:
Good morning. I'm David Greene. Emma Ginder was teaching on Zoom when her class heard her pass something on.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
UNIDENTIFIED CHILD #1: (Laughter) What was that?
UNIDENTIFIED CHILD #2: I think she farted (laughter).
GREENE: Kids lost it when they heard the fart. They were sure it was their teacher.

EMMA GINDER: Whoever it was might be a little embarrassed, so let's stop.
UNIDENTIFIED CHILD #3: I still blame you.
GREENE: The teacher later admitted to playing a fake fart sound to lighten the mood. She said, I apologize for having the maturity of an 8-year-old boy. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
