BOMB GAMES!
So there is this great invention called Microsoft powerpoint! I did not know the countless things it could do up until this year! It fills my classes with joy until it bubbles over with squeals and screams! I am certain that this excitement over bomb games that makes other teams lose their points, or change points or get 5, 6, 7, 3 or double points is fuelled by the competitive streak of Korean children. In this kind of environment it is so welcoming. Children screaming out the answers to questions to see if they will be ahead or behind of the other groups makes a teacher's heart glow! Today, to my delight my grade 6 class ended in squeals as the final round of the Simpson bomb game (specially designed for lesson 13: "that's too bad" describing all different ailments or symptoms) ended with a twist in the tale. Group 1 doubled to 44, group 2 then came along and got a "change points", so obvoisuly they swopped with group 1, and group 3 to much delight with only 21 originally, also got a change points and ended up winning by swopping with group 2!! I was rather stoked as I always seem to support the underdog! It is great to see the snotty brats that all go to afterschool academy go down! HAHA! This time they all seemed to be in group 2! It makes for great entertainment as a teacher. :)
Oh, these joys in life delight me! :)
