HelenA moment of teaching insanity today - which I did contribute to, fair enough. A Yr11 guessed exactly the poem and question on their Lit Paper 1 - so I bought them a bag of onions as a prize ("I give you an onion" Valentine, Carol Ann Duffy). Another student then proceeded to eat a raw onion, just because. It was a spicy one. Tears and retching ensued. The rest of the day: "It smells of onions in here, Ms". #Teaching #Education #SecondarySchool #CarolAnnDuffy #Poetry #Poem #Onions

I took on the challenge of eating a raw onion at a party once, as it turns out I'm very stupid.
