Darren's Car | POEM

The teacher engages students in an imagination exercise, asking them to choose an animal they would like to be. Donna and Zoe both choose to be cats, while Darren humorously insists on being a car. Zoe later changes her mind to a jellyfish. Mervyn chooses a slug, and Louise opts for a cockroach due to her home situation. Darren finally compromises by imagining himself as a car with a dog inside. The exercise encourages creativity and humor among the students.
