It kind of interesting to see how what's going on in the world is viewed by my students. These two examples are from sixth grade students.
One:
In their language arts classes, the kids wrote poems using hyperbole. They'd pick an adjective, and write a bunch of hyperbole based on it. Example: "It was so loud babies across the world cried."
One wrote, "It was so happy the Iraq war ended."
Two:
A kid was having a conversation with a teacher about cell phones. The teacher mentioned that he is probably due for a new one, remarking "My phone needs change." The student looked confused for a second, and then said "Oh! You don't mean change like quarters and nickels. You mean like Obama change."
