the teacher distributes ammunition and imparts sound firing skills he frowns as his kids fumble, missing the target some have adopted flippant posture; others let distraction cloud their vision the nervous ones needed persuasion, even coercion before pressing the trigger an exasperating lot aimed at the wrong lane! the cloud of enmity threatens to shroud the quicksand of time refuses to let go the teacher tailors instructions to the needs of every soldier, pushing towards 100% hit rates the battle mayn't be won; it will definitely be hard-fought.

I loved the way you describe the student mindset! Some will be willing, some reluctant. Hopefully, they will all appreciate your time and effort! |

VERY well said! [Having been a teacher for many years...I can assuredly attest to that] applause for this 'penning'! |

Kaile, Yes, teachers are always a challenge. I have reduced more than one to tears of exasperation. Don’t let guys like me get you down. Bobby |

I, too, would love to be a pupil in your class. Do you take 62-year old pupils in your school? Smiling. - Owl |
