Today, during the English class, we played a game. We had to form four groups. Each group got 17 pieces of paper and had to write the names of all the members on one of them. Then the teacher proceeded to explain the game to us. We had to write down the answers of the questions that appeared on the electronic board or fill in the gaps in a sentence or complete it. A member of the group, then had to run to a table on which four papers were located, with a number from 1-4. The numbers represented the amount of points the group would be getting. So whoever wrote their answer down first, or was the first to reach the table, got to choose how many points he or she wanted. His or her group would then get those points as well as an additional point if their answer was correct. Unless of course, the answer was complete nonsense. There was some arguing concerning the placement of the table with the points, as all the groups weren't at the same distance from it. The teacher said that we will have to do exercises in our work-books instead of playing the game and miraculously, the class fell silent. I remember some of the things we had to do:
-We had to write who invented Windows and when.
-Who invented roller skates and when.
-Write the alphabet backwards.
-Write the date with words.
-Change an active sentence into a passive and the other way around.
-Write down a really big number with words.
-At the end we had to answer a riddle.
