I loved it, thanks for sharing.

What age students do you work with? Did you do this activity with a specific class or subject? It sounds like a great lesson, you must be a creative teacher. I am a teacher also, but I think my kids would be too young (6-9yrs) and therefore get hung up on the romantic plot, and they wouldn't get the same response as an older audience. While I won't use it verbatim, your lesson was inspiring all the same.
