I agree with Albert. I think that we could create our own sci-fi skit in front of the class. We would work in groups of 3-5 and we would have 30-40 minutes to prepare.
I like skits. They make me all... skittish (Aha! the puns! How funny) Now, in all seriousness that could actually be fun. Or, each group could create an alien language that everyone would have to figure out. They would have to act like aliens and we could see the troubles with actually connecting with other intelligent life. Or we could work in groups to create a short, science fiction story. Or we could have a debate in which we are all assigned a character from Ender's Game and have fun acting as that character. (Peter would have to be someone not willing to go all out.)
I've taught English in San Diego City Schools for the past 25 years. I've taught at Mann Middle School, Serra High School, Muirlands Middle School, Lincoln High School, and Crawford High School. I currently teach English to freshmen and seniors at Scripps Ranch High School.
I developed and taught English Methods for twenty years at San Diego State University before "retiring" in 2004.

George, I have to tell you that you stole my idea. I wrote that 1 week ago, but it was deleted by Mr.Kelso.
