A man with 2 heads
I played a game in class today (thanks for the idea, Tim!) where I read sentences aloud in English and the kids had to understand what I said and draw it. 10 sentences formed a whole picture. Below you see a most disturbing misinterpretation of the sentence,
"the man has 2 heads"
Though I have to admit, the picture IS correct.
