G1 Talking to a habitual disrupter in the class

You have a classmate who considers himself to be very smart and makes fun of students
who study hard. He and his gang of friends have the irritating habit of disrupting the class
and annoying your teachers. Imagine a conversation with one of them and find out why they
interrupt the class and create a nuisance much to the discomfiture of students who wish to
learn earnestly from their teachers. Now write down the conversation as a dialogue. Remember
you must be subtle while talking to this classmate.

G2 Against the odds
Some people, despite being considered lazy, irresponsible or incapable by many, overcome all
the odds to become successful. Many even become famous personalities. Divide the class into
groups of three and collect information about any three such personalities and share it in class.
