🍯 Teacher's Tip!

💡 **Heads up!** While 'Hit the road!' usually means 'Let's go!' or 'Time to leave!', it can also be used playfully or humorously to tell someone to leave. For example, if someone's teasing you too much, you might jokingly say, 'Okay, hit the road, you!' Just make sure it's clear you're kidding, or it might sound a bit rude! 😉
