Moderate in all things?

DRURY: (Looking over student shoulder as they write curriculum): Great tactile idea for second graders--making cookies, but tell the teacher more than "Bake in moderate oven for 10-15 minutes"--what do you mean by moderate oven?"

STUDENT: "You know, a regular sized oven--not one of those counter top ones."

(it was not a joke)
