Young love

In P5, we're learning about comparative and superlative adjectives.  I decided to have them write a sentence and draw a picture, then read their sentence to the class.  

Most students wrote things like, "Bam is taller than Om," or, "This car is faster than that car."

Then, there was Gam.

Gam is a nice kid.  He's very quiet in class, so I figured he was shy.

My tutoree, Na, recently informed me that Gam is in love with Noon, one of the smartest girls in the class.

When everyone was finished drawing, I went around the room and had the kids read their sentences.

Everyone sitting around Gam seemed really excited about his sentence.  He stood up, took a breath, and read, "Noon is the most beautiful girl in the world."

The classroom erupted into cheers as Noon held her paper over her face.

Gam just grinned from ear to ear.

Smooth.
