Today I had 5 hours of English lessons with 8 A (2h) and 7 A (3 h). There is a boy in one of my classes, I had noticed him at the second-third lesson while observing my adviser conducting the lessons, so this boy is passive on the lessons , shy, he is always drawing/writing/ smth or/ and even sometimes he was just listening to music. Once I asked him to show me his notebook. His pictures/paintings were amazing, he also wrote there his thoughts.
The following week I noticed him playing the dombyra, he definitely is gifted one, but shy or introverted or just do not like team work.
So today we were going to play Kahoot to consolidate knowledge of new grammar we learned, and when almost everyone connected to the game, he was kind of sleepy and not interested in what everybody was doing, he told me that he didn’t want to play, I offered him my phone (turned out that the real reason was that he didn’t have phone to play) and another boy(very active one, who always asks my phone to play kahoot) joined him
The results: the team of very shy boy won the game, although there were Olympiad and other students who knew English much better.
P.S.I saw the smile on his face, what happens rarely. it was a little win for me
