English Club Meeting





Yesterday, from 2.15 to 3.15 p.m, in Two C, the English Club members had fun playing a word-guessing game. One by one, the members were called to the front as an emcee and drew a card from my plastic container.  Each student should ask the others to guess the word on the card by giving verbal clues in English. Miming and the mention of the first letter were not permitted.  The main objective of the activity was to encourage the students to describe things in English, the more the better.

          Throughout the one-hour activity, the classroom was buzzing with rapturous laughter. Some words got the students scratching their heads while some were a piece of cake to them. It was both heart-warming and funny to see how different cards elicited different reactions from the members. Some emcees seemed to have an uncanny telepathic connection with a few students.  Before they could give clues, the exclamations of the right answers had already filled the air, making my jaw drop.

So cute that boy! Nothing beats active and fun kids - so sad that many these days are so brain-dead, physically dead...in school just to excel in exams, never mind that they are merely going through the motions like robots, no life.

You are so spot on with your observation, Arthur.
