Scene:  8th graders entering room
boy:  can we have a fun day?
ignore.
boy:  could you tell us stories today?  you're so good at telling stories.
ignore.  breathe.
boy:  maybe we could watch a movie?
talk to someone else close by.
boy:  at least can we just have a day where we can speak in English?
me:  sure!  you can speak in english.  but we follow the same rules-so I have to speak only in english, too.  this might complicate things.
boy:  oh.  never mind, then.  it's way more fun to watch you try to act it out than just speaking a little english.  go ahead with normal class.  forget i asked.
me:  thank you for your permission.
