Third Grade
I was reading aloud from "Ramona the Pest" by Beverly Cleary. We came across a section of the book in which Ramona's Dad comes home and tells the family that the car's transmission is broken, and that the auto repair shop will let them pay in installments. Knowing that the students probably didn't know what this meant, I asked them to take their best guess.

"I think it means that Ramona's Dad will have to pay before they install it."

Sounds logical to me….
