For more than thirty years I have taught those darling little children in the grade schools. It has been necessary for me to give them examinations on what they should have studied and should have learned. Sometimes the examination is written. Other times it is oral. I also have to ask them questions about what they are doing. One thing is certain: If teacher is not clear in pronouncing a word or doesnât make the meaning clear of a thought, those little kids will give you. unusual answers. The kids always enjoyed try-ing to catch teacher with a riddle or puzzle. Or find something that the teacher doesn't know.. And how happy a boy or girl is when this has been accomplished. Children are sometimes very observant. I was walking up and down the aisles in order to check on the geography homework and look at . the colored map of the United States that had been assigned to each student the previous day. Jimmy looked down at me. He giggled. âWhat's the matter?â I asked him. âSome. thing mustâ be funny for you.to act that way.â âYou are wearing a brown sock on the right foot and a black sock on the left foot,â he informed me. TI looked down and sure enough, he was correct. It can happen to anyone who has socks of a different color. And gets up early in the morning. Then suddenly I replied to him in a stiff. voice. âWhat is unusual about that? I have at home a duplicate pair of socks with one brown and one black.â He opened his mouth to answer me. Then closed it without a single word coming out. Definitely he was trying to figure that one out. But I wasnât prepared for what he did the next day. He came to school with a paper bag. Which he opened on my desk. Took from it three pairs ~ of socks. Yes, you guessed it. Each pair had one brown sock and one black sock. ââMy dad also has pairs of, stockings just like yours,â he said without a smile on his face. âA very good idea.ââ 3 Then he put them back into the bag and reâtumed to his seat. He was smarter than I was! âHe hadâ carried the joke one step further. Who says that kids aren't alert and have a good sense of humor? â We were talking about prayers. That people of different faiths all over the world prayed â for various reasons. Alice got up and said that before she went to sleep, she would bend at the side of her bed and repeat a short prayer. Then, Jimmy said that when he went with his parents to church, he had been taught several âprayers. And Frank said that when the little baby brother was very ill, everyone in the family prayed for a speedy recovery. -Looked. as though my lesson was going to be very successful. Ah, if my principal had only been in the room to observe me.
