Friday Morning Little Moment

Part of my duty as a teacher is to expose my students to "stupid science" as I have termed all things obviously incorrect. This morning, as I was heading into the main building to sign in, a student walked up and called my name to say hi. She also told me about this great commercial she saw. Some man was trying to sell mulch that comes "from the earth" and is somehow amazing. I said, "Where else would it come from?" She replied, "Exactly!" While they may not all come away with a spectacular understanding of human anatomy, they are learning to critically think and evaluate what they see and hear. And that makes me proud.
