Duh! Or Am I Missing Something?

Quotes from fifth grade writing samples:
  • "It was the best first time camping trip I've ever had."
  • "He is the best brother I have ever had plus my other brother."
  • "Some day we'll be better than best friends."
Are these students writing something so deep that I'm not getting them?

* "It was the best first time camping trip I've ever had."

This is very very deep. I'll get back to you on this one.

* "He is the best brother I have ever had plus my other brother."

Not too deep, but again, I'll get back to you.

* "Some day we'll be better than best friends."

Obviously this is a reference to the afterlife - very astute writing for Grade 5. ;-)
