Flooding

The other day my students and I were talking about weather and I mentioned that back home in the States there were many tornados and a lot of rain lately.

"How much rain?"
"This much."  Showing a large amount of rain with my hands, clearly exaggerating.
"Woooow.  Do they use a boat?"
"Yes." 
"Cooool.  I want to go to school in a boat!"

These students are about as easy to tease as Kayleen was when she was younger... :) 

What I find fun about all of this is when I was teaching my 7th grade students about Monsoon season in Asia, a student said, "Cool! I want to go to school in a boat!"
