A teacher said to her class, “Right, I am holding something under the desk and I want you to guess it. It’s round and red” Calvin’s hand shot up, above anyone else but he was ignored.
“It’s a plum miss,” said Nthabi.
“No, it’s an apple, but I like your thinking. The next one is oval shaped and green.”
The teacher ignored Calvin again and Mandla said , “It’s a kiwi miss.”
“No, its a guava, but I like your thinking.”
Calvin then said, “I got one miss, it’s stiff, about 2 inches long and with a red head.”
“Calvin, that’s disgusting!” Shouted the teacher.
“No, it’s a match stick, but l like your thinking.” Said Calvin.
