They're so cute at that age

When I was teaching my intermediate students the second conditional (things that can't or won't happen) I put them in groups and asked them to imagine they were all-powerful beings from another planet. What would they do if they took over the planet? The results were enlightening, funny and a little scary.


In the center you can see where one group, consisting of three boys and one traumatized girl who obviously had no say in the matter, said "I would kill all the people". There's a group I was careful not to turn my back on.

In the bottom right corner you can see where one group wrote "I would make men to replace the women duty like the men is give birth not women anymore". Not surprisingly, this group was comprised of four girls.
