Typo on google classroom !!! Cringing

Today with the home schooling, there was a video about writing sentences. My daughter is five and in primary one so I have to upload the work and guide her through it very closely. I thought I wrote in one of the comments - "we had a shot of doing every sentence" and what I actually wrote was "we had a shit at every sentence". I tried to delete and it came up - "the teacher will see the deleted comment". I am genuinely cringing. I deleted the comment and wrote - "apologies for typo". Is there anything else I should do? I don't want to make it a bigger deal than what I feel it is in my head... calm me down mumsnet!! Teachers would you see the funny side for this or what would your reaction be?

I’m a lecturer in marketing, and have numerous times written “pubic relations”. I also used to teach a student called Guy, and a couple of times wrote “hi Gay” in Teams messages. (He was gay, and fortunately thought it was funny, but god, dying. Especially to do it more than once.) Often I am typing on my phone after work hours and my fingers go faster than my brain - something about my laptop means I always check even on Teams.

Oh don't worry about it. He/She will be pissing themselves laughing.
Teachers are human and do have a sense of humour.

Oh please don’t worry, it would make my day! We need all the laughs we can get right now 😆.

I once received an email from a customer apologising for their ‘incontinence’ rather than incompetence.

I have signed off ‘kind retards’ instead of ‘kind regards’ on more than one e mail.

I now have time delay set up. Blush

Don't worry. Instead of telling my yr 11s in a live lesson this week that I was going to duck out while they were writing, I declared "I'm going to dick off". Luckily I can mute them and their cameras are off so I could kid myself that no one noticed...
