Special Ed Special Report

Setting: Christian Perspectives/Lifeskills Class, a class of five kids with certain challenges where we learn basic life and social lessons, and some stellar biblical principles as well.

The Players: Enrique the Chino, Green Mango (Teachers);
Textbook Asperger's, The Mule, Daydream Believer, Gollum (Students)

TODAY'S LESSON: WHAT WE CHOOSE SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT WHO WE ARE


ETC: Imagine you are on a journey through the desert for many days. You finally come upon an oasis. What is your first thought?...

Daydream Believer: A waitress?! What is she doing in the desert?

--

ETC:When you finally reach your destination, you enter a building. In that building you go to the kitchen and open a cupboard. What is in that cupboard?

Daydream Believer: (Excitedly and without irony) Girls!

Textbook Asperger's: (Seriously and without irony) A dead body.

ETC: It has to be something you would normally find in a cupboard.

TA: Okay, not a dead body. A tied-up body?
