It's raining. And a short day (only 30 minutes for each class). So I thought, "Hey, brilliant teacher, why not have a game day with Character Development?"
I brought in Apples to Apples, Pairs of Pears, and Scattergories, all excellent language-building games. And to keep my 14-year old boys busy, I wrote additional ideas on the board like thumb wrestling and rock-paper-scissors.
Five minutes into class, I realized that the kids with the letter tiles were playing ... you guessed it ... R-rated Scrabble. When I blurted out, "Wha? Wha? What?", one young scholar replied, "But look, miss! All the parts of speeach!"
