In the course of a game of Taboo

"It's a bird..."
"Chicken!"
"Duck!"
"Pheasant!"
"Turkey!"
"Cream!"
"Non, mais oh! Cream, c'est pas un bird!"

Never mind, it was funny to me. Funny enough that I kept thinking about it for the rest of class and giggling to myself. It's funny how I will miss some of my students when the year is over.

And yet others, not at all, as the game got a bit too competitive at around this point. So srah stopped giving points and started giving bunnies and ducks and boats and teepees, in the hopes that they would stop berating their teammates and turn their attention instead to their insane English assistant.

Another good one came later, when the student holding the word "tuna" began "It lives in the forest...". Apparently he had not understood exactly what a tuna was. It's not nice to laugh, but sometimes it's unavoidable.
