Today during my first class, the students and I started discussing psychics and tarot cards and stuff. That discussion followed a previous discussion which had centered on Herv� and how his older siblings are twins. Making the bridge nicely, I infomed them of the following:
"Actually, I have a strange story, speaking of twins and psychics. It's stupid, but strange. I went to a psychic once, who told me I would have twins. Then I went to a palm reader, who also told me I'd have twins. Finally, I went to see a tarot card reader, and she also told me I'd have twins. I don't really want twins, but I just find it strange that three different people - all claiming to have supernatural powers - said I'd have twins."
The kids agreed that this was strange with declarations of, "Three people? Huh!" and "That's a coincidence!"
But then, Salima, in the back, said in all seriousness, "No ma'am. You aren't going to have any twins. I'm psychic, too. You're not."
Well, that puts and end to that.
