“It’s either ‘oblivious’ or ‘obviate’. There is not such thing as ‘obliviate’,” Mr Klemp explained.
“But I read it in a book! The word exists,” Kenny insisted.
“And where did you read it? 14th century textbook?”
“No, I read it in a storybook by a world famous author!” Kenny elucidated.
Mr Klemp was getting frustrated. “And what book is that?”
“Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.”
Just a silly little story to illustrate the problems teachers face. The struggle is very real.
If you are interested, the prompt is linked below.
Welcome to April 29, 2019 and to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). It’s designed to fill the void after WordPress bailed on its daily one-word prompt.
I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (US).
Today’s word is “obviate.”
Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.
Once you are done, tag your post with #FOWC and create a pingback to this post if you are on WordPress. Or you can simply include a link to your post in the comments.
Prompt: FOWC with Fandango — Obviate
