Questions
Sometimes I open up the last few minutes of class to questions.
"Does the US have big cities or just countryside?"
Me: "Does Japan have big cities or just countryside?"
"Okay, but some countries have only countryside, like India."
Me: "India has big cities!!!
"Why is American food so BIG?" "Why do Americans eat so much?"
Me: "Good question. I have no idea."
"Why are some Americans blond?"
Me: "Well..."
"Why do you have blue eyes?"
Me: "Well.... ask me something I can answer!!!
"You said we could ask you anything."
Me: "That I did. But I really only want you to ask me questions I can answer!"
All time favorite questions thus far:
How old are Americans when they learn English?
Why do you have a face that looks like a foreigner?
Do you really speak English? Are you really fluent?
Can you understand American movies without reading the subtitles?
Why can't you write kanji (Chinese characters), you can do math, can't you?
