Overheard in My Classroom

"I started watching the Twilight Zone...Best TV show EVER!  And it was made in the 1960s!"

She went on to explain how it was black and white, and how she was watching it with her dad, since it was the show he grew up on.

Later, after class started and I was signing reading logs, one student raised his hand and called me over:

"Guess what?  Israel is going to invade Libya!"

"Oh no dear, you mean Gaza, and maybe they are."

"AND they're sending in missiles!"

Y'know, Libya, Gaza, same difference to a 12-year-old.  The important parts are the words "invasion" and "missiles."
