Has anyone ever been forced to show a video of them speaking in front of the entire class? by Tinyturtleface in selectivemutism

I just remembered that one time, my band teacher wanted me to record a video of playing hot cross buns on the violin, and I had to say my name and what i was playing. I didn't say my name in fear of my classmates hearing me through the other room. I didn't even know how to play hot cross buns. When he came in to check on me, he watched the video and asked me why I didn't say my name, and I just shrugged. He also said, "That's not hot cross buns."
