You Put Your Left Foot In...
My husband and I had one of our deep philosophical discussions a few days ago:
" Very few of my teachers inspired me. I liked a lot of them but very few of them were inspiring.", I said.
" I'm trying to think of some of mine. I liked some, too. But a lot of them just weren't good teachers.", he stated.
" Now, my third grade teacher- I loved her. She was patient and read to us and she encouraged us to read with reading contests."
" Yeah, I loved it when teachers read to us."
" Now my second grade teacher, I didn't learn hardly anything in her class. I had to teach myself how to tell time. Oh, wait. We learned the hokey pokey."
" Well, that's important. You learned to put your left foot in and your left foot out. And your right foot in and your right foot out."
" And I learned to turn myself around. That's what it's all about."

Oh, I loved when teachers read to us, too. Even one of my 6th grade teachers read to us once in a while. It was wonderful.
ReplyDeleteMy second grade teacher used to read to us. She would hold the book and read it from the top. I was always so impressed by how she could do that :)
ReplyDeleteMy third grade teacher changed my life for the better. I was heading down the wrong path, she noticed it and took extra time with me to make it right. I have her to thank very much for my success in life. She stands out the most for my experience with teachers. Yes, she read to us as well.
