On Making Teaching Torture

Yesterday I posted in my classroom a message for my current students from a student now in eighth grade:

Yesterday I also presented a new means of torture. To juicify my teaching about paragraph unity, I’d searched the internet for exciting material, and found just what I needed. Before showing it to students, I told them that it not only contains everything they need to know about paragraph unity but also is boringness perfected almost to the point of hilarity.

I think they rather enjoyed it.
