So, this week I only have real classes on Monday and Tuesday, so I had to make lesson plans that were interesting, but not too hardcore, since half of the students won’t have the pleasure of experiencing them. For 2nensei classes I planned like four games, but we only ended up playing two in each class because the kids LOVE them some Boggle, apparently! I thought it’d only last like 10-15 minutes, but every class did it for 30. Craziness! Anyway, I was really happy that the kids were excited about playing and thinking of lots of words, but I felt really bad when they’d read them out loud to me ‘cause I couldn’t understand half of them. They’d have to repeat each one like ten times, and finally just spell it at times. I’m sure that helped their confidence! Sad!
Anyway, in the last class I had, I was getting a long list of words, when all of a sudden a student excitedly yells, “COCK!” I bulged my eyes, paused for a second, and calmly said, “What?” as normally as one could in the situation. “COCK!” To this I couldn’t remain calm anymore and started giggling like a schoolgirl to myself until he was like “oh…COOK!” For the rest of the list I couldn’t think of anything else, but apparently the students didn’t notice. I do believe it affected my next list of words that I thought of, however, as the list included: head, rim, ram, hard, and wet. Damn kids are making me dirrtier, if such a thing is possible!

That was a dirty game indeed! Good thing nobody pulled out on you a "Golden Shower" as they did in one of my classes to describe our Independence Angel, I really had to contain myself but it was really really hard not to have that mental image of my favorite piece of history!!! hehehe, foreign languages are just too weird at time! hehehe
