I have one kid in the speech club who, instead of preparing a speech during class friday afternoon, spent no less than 45 minutes doing this:
...with an entire box of chalk.(that's his name)
Needless to say, this unique child won't be representing the school at Wednesday's speech competition.
meticulously inscribing "pookao" "pookao" "pookao" into each clean new stick of chalk, i'd be fascinated to discover what was going through young Pookao's head for that entire class period...
was it territory marking? (this would be odd.) was my lesson that mind-numbing? (quite likely, especially for a child who barely speaks english.) does he have such a dearth of playthings, he's resorted to white chalk? (i know this one is not true. he's 10 years old and owns an iPhone.)
countdown until amelia arrives: 4 days
