Monday morning, so sleepy!
As we get into the classroom, there were only a few people in. Fifteen minutes passed, the teacher showed us today’s agenda. We are going to understand the differences between elements and sub elements that constitute a method –tricky word-. As we sat in circle, we were told that we are going to do a little game called The Purple Hippopotamus. We have never heard about it, and we were given the strangest instructions for it.
We were told close our eyes and imagine that everything is purple from now on. When the teacher asked us to open our eyes there was a fat purple hippo on the screen, We looked at everyone’s face and they were clueless as we was. Four students were asked to act out as it was a screenplay or something.
The story was about a nice hippo who fell in love. Anyway, when it ended we can assure you that no one knew for sure the purpose of the game, a lot of people tried to guess, until one lucky lady came up with the answer, it was the magic word: Interaction.
