A teacher in a school full of bright young things made the decision to use an interesting word game to encourage the students’ inventiveness. The task was to think of terms that finish in “tor” and have a voracious thirst for goods. With great excitement, the kids held up their hands, prepared to take part.
A self-assured young child led the line, confidently yelling, “Alligator!” His large and impactful word choice won him praise from the teacher. As the next student excitedly cried out, “Predator!” the entire classroom was filled with expectation.
