Kids Say The Darndest Things.
Sometimes we play a modified version of Scattergories in my classes whereby I make put something like this on a page and get the kids to work on it in groups:
1. A country in Europe.
2. A Hollywood movie from 2007.
3. A musical instrument.
4. Something BIG.
5. Something small.
Some awesome responses of late:
Something BIG: "Children's dreams".
Something mall: "Noda's heart". (I believe Noda, who is a boy in the group, submitted this response himself. I have to get to know this kid better.)
Musical instrument: "Noda." (I asked for a demonstration: it turns out each button on his uniform shirt makes a different tone which emits from his mouth via his voice. I asked if I could play him; it was more difficult than I thought at first because as the buttons went up toward his chin, the notes got progressively LOWER - I tried to play the opening riff to "Redemption Song" by Bob Marley, but since the tuning was backwards, it didn't work very well.)
