Autumn time invites us to read and pool 3rd form ideas and believes on what students think about themselves. The story 'I'm The Best', by Lucy Cousins tells us about Dog, who loves his friends. He thinks they're brilliant. But he also thinks that he's the best, and he just won't stop telling them! So what happens when his friends decide to teach him a lesson, by showing him all the things they are best at?
This story helped us reflect upon our most developed abilities and about what makes us special. Does it really matter to be the best at something? Is it necessary to be the best at everything? In the end, we used it to have a discussion about how everyone is good at something different. Both 3rd forms picked up on the lesson quickly and groaned at the end when it didn't seem like Dog learned anything.
