Something Unusual That Happened On Friday

Hello Readers!
Yesterday (Friday), we played 'Tikam' during English class. Although it sounds as if it's a game created a long time ago, I still think Ma'am created this game. Here's how it goes:

When Ms Tan choose a number, the guy with register number that corresponds to it, chooses an enclosed post-it paper from Ms Tan's box.

The person then opens the post-it paper, revealing the word written in it. He has to give the definition of the word. If not, he would choose a person, instead.

When the word's meaning is finally said by someone, they get to take a white paper from Ms Tan, which has either number from one to six written on it. These are our prize.

Prizes includes, a chance card for detention, kinder bueno, marsh mallow, zour bomb,

Basically, that’s how the game ran. Jonathan was first to go, with register number 13. The word he got- Perturb. He does not know. The word went around the whole class and nobody knows the explicit meaning of this intricate word. So, Ma’am decided that we learn this word, and no one gets the prize. The meaning of the word- unsettled.

The words babel, infer, entrancing and ensue, came out too. The words meaning confuse, deduce, captivate, and start to pass, respectively. Justin and Sharadh got one, while Sylvester got two. After that, we continue with our normal English class, going through comprehension.

I think it was one of the most unusual beginning of English class I had in my life, and it was a very fun one. It made the whole class restless once in awhile, but Ms Tan still managed to get order with her ‘hangman’ threat.  But at least, when we were at proper English class, we weren’t tired and lethargic.
