Drama Queen --- Siggy

When Siggy danced ballet to the class, I fell in love with her at the first sight. She is a naughty boy, an energetic magician, a ballet dancer and a drama queen. Her class is full of surprises, and you have no idea what she is going to say or to do the next moment.

She is very initiative in her teaching. She asked us to complete a story by using “fortunately” and “unfortunately” at the beginning of each sentence by turn. She asked us to provide special vocabularies of facilities in the hospital or airport etc., which starts with the first letter of our names to enlarge our vocabulary.

I can remember many activities Siggy carried out in the class. In one class, she first asked us to draw a T-shirt and then asked us to finish some tasks according to her description. For instance, to write our hometown on the right sleeve of the shirt, write the name that gave deep influence on us on the left sleeve, write our hobbies on the right bottom of the shirt and something we would like to conquer on the left bottom, which I wrote procrastination; and something we are unwilling to share with other people in the middle of the shirt. After finishing the entire task, she asked us to count numbers from 1 to 5, those were in the same number were put into a group and they were supposed to clarify what they had written to each other. Then, we counted again, and were assigned to groups with different people. While we were talking, Siggy walked around to listen to our conversation and talk to us randomly.

We had a lot of fun from doing those tasks and we are free to say what we want to say under the guidance of the drama queen. It is a good opportunity to re-experience our life as a student and I enjoyed the atmosphere a lot.  If we would offer such colorful activities to our students in the future, our students will benefit a great deal from those tasked-based activities.
