And what did YOU do for your weekend?
So, this week I had my Junior II classes, and I decided to have my warmup be something simple: What did you do on the weekend? Most kids gave the same answers: watched t.v., read a book, slept, studied, played computer games. Blah blah blah, very dull.
However, one kid today answered like this:
"I killed people! And I played computer games."
I stared at him for a moment. (Okay, I laughed so hard I thought I was going to be sick.) Then I asked "How many people did you kill?"
"A thousand!" he said, with a big grin on his face.
"Was it in a computer game?"
"No!"
"Um... okay. Did you make the newspaper?"
"No!"
"How did you kill them?"
"With a knife!"
So, yeah. Kid went and killed a thousand people on the weekend. I'm keeping an eye on the news.
