Ambiguity rules

I am reviewing a teacher's guide that a colleague of mine wrote and I found the following unfortunate sentence:

"If possible, form students into small groups."

Hmmm...one possible interpretation leads to a very strange mental picture.

That's great. I'm currently trying to decide what the best tool would be for forming groups out of each student...

I'm getting a mental image kind of like the mega-baby from Invader Zim.

Thanks! :)
