Stuff My Students Have Taught Me...


Lesson #1

A child's logic is unique and strangely makes sense somehow.  For example, if a pencil sharper sharpens pencils, then it must sharpen crayons as well.
(I spent over an hour cleaning out the sharper so it would work again. ) 



Lesson #2

Why take a test today when you can take it tomorrow?  This also works well for studying for tests or just general every day seat work. 



Lesson #3

Words often mean different things then they do in the states.  For example, don't freak out if your student says another student is "molesting" them.  Here they use it to mean that someone is annoying them.  Guess I shouldn't have called the police.....



Lesson #4

Keeping a child in their seat is nearly impossible.  Like a determined puppy they will always find a way to escape and wonder the room. 




Lesson #5

Children are VERY creative when it comes to cheating.  If there is a way, they will find it.....trust me.
