Thanks Target. Your encouragement towards consumerism comes at just the right time.
EDIT: Here's the 8th grade PE coach version. Thanks to dkzody for the heads up.

I'm not too sure if you're criticizing the ad, or what, but I like these Target ads for back to school. This one is cute, but my favorite is the PE teacher and the jump drive. That's about how the baseball coach I knew would have talked about the jump drive. Kids need these things, Target has them.
I am criticizing over-consumerism. Replace these Target ads with any other ad and the tone of my comments will still apply.
That said, I love Target and their support of their local schools, students, and educators. If I had enough cash, I would snap up Target stocks like a frog snaps up flies.
However, I don't like the insinuation that teachers put "unknown" items on student supplies lists. If I don't expect my students to use it, then I don't expect them to buy it.
