15 Minutes of DEAD SILENCE! And the work is fantastic!!


LOVE the Gush!!

I write here because Twitter is blocked...Blogger is not yet considered innappropraite!

The GUSH is back!

I remember the good ol' days of Gushes. My baby, my claim to fame as an English teacher. Well, I've resurrected the Gushes in my drama class. Today we are writing our first.

I have given my pupils 12 props. Random props like a Russian Hat and a tambourine, and they have to create a story about the props. It's been five minutes and they are dead silent....scribbling away. The Gushes have magic powers, they really encapsulate people.

One kid suggested "What does air taste like?" I like that one....

Power to the GUSH!
