The question of the day was What is something you did that you will never do again? In addition to our check-in conversation, I was aiming for the students to uncover an alphabiography topic (a short personal narrative with a life lesson at the end), and for many the prompt did just that.
Never again will they
walk behind a metal swing while someone's on it
leave the house without money
take a road trip without a charger
ride a roller coaster
touch an electric fence with a slice of pizza in the other hand (Spoiler alert! The cow got the pizza.)
eat a whole habenero
wear white to school
walk away from the oven when cookies are baking
take a test without studying
eat sushi
run around like crazy near barbed wire
stick tweezers in the outlet
take a deep breath of salt and vinegar chips
go to online school
prank call the police
text the wrong person
cut their own hair
touch a cicada
pour sand on a leaf and eat it
steal from their parents
swim with sharks
expect school to be fun and easy
Lesson?
Learned.
