You know the stupid N-Word funeral crap? Check out this bizarre lesson plan: http://www.lessonplanspage.com/LAWordFuneralIdea68.htm That is pretty fucked up, actually. I think it's the "I'm a killer" part that really makes me go It would be an extra fun classroom activity these days..very sensitive! Plus lighting candles in classrooms is always a good call.
Waaay back in 3rd grade we did something like that. What was that, like, 1964? Mrs. Burgess came up with three or four words that she said were improper English, such as "ain't." Then we had a boys vs girls contest for the whole semester. Each time someone said one of the words, the other side scored a point. Can't remember what the prize was.
