....because the kids were bonkers today. BONKERS. Like they had never been in a classroom before. So it was a tough day, especially since the lesson was to watch a biography of Charles Dickens while taking notes for a "quiz" afterwards. Admittedly, not the most exciting thing in the world. As we went over the finer details of Dickens's life, one of the questions asked why Dickens had left his wife (basically because he was a jerk).
Me: So what was one of the reasons why Charles Dickens wanted to separate from his wife?
Student: Well, he blamed her for losing his creativity. Plus he was having an affair with some actress.
Another Student: Wait...did you talk to him?
I guess the whole 35-minute documentary we had just watched kinda escaped his notice.
