the story that almost made me pee in the kindergarten class

It was Josh's "Back to School" night and I was sitting in a teeny tiny chair listening to the teacher say the things that teachers say, every year after year. My eyes were kind of glazing over as she covered familiar topic after familiar topic. I straightened up and paid a bit more attention when she started in on the big bad internet warning only because my kid can't spell and I began to wonder what exactly a kindergartner would be doing on the internet in the first place. Josh's teacher decided to share this cautionary tale with us....

One of the big projects that the third graders get every year is an animal report. The report comes after a series of research oriented visits to the library and a big trip to the Bronx Zoo. The kids get to do a series of drawings and they usually go all out for the covers. One year recently the school decided to be very current and very 21st century and they allowed the kids to use some internet research while preparing their reports. One little girl went home and googled the name of her animal. She googled BEAVER.
