Today, more than ever before
-
education has a very very important role
-
in the teaching of children.
-
School has become a vital part in every community,
-
drawing children from every walk of life
-
Off to school, George!
-
eager to take advantage of its opportunities.
-
Emerging from their sheltered confines
-
dipping easily into the habits of the student.
-
Coming from far and near,
-
struggling towards an education
-
whetting their appetites for knowledge,
-
forming friendships for the future
-
childish energy lets nothing stand in its way.
-
In their tiny hands, they hold the future.
-
The person upon whose capable shoulders
-
rests the responsibility for their education
-
is that unsung hero, the teacher.
-
He must be fair, honest,
-
understanding, and intelligent.
-
He must handle every situation
-
with the utmost dignity.
-
With a complete understanding of his pupils,
-
the experienced teacher equips himself for the classroom.
-
Good morning to you
-
good morning dear teacher
-
George!
-
Good morning, dear teacher,
-
we're happy to be here
-
Good morning, dear teacher,
-
We love our school all year.
-
Roll call, pupils.
-

-

-

-

-
George!
-
Homework, children!
-
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, ...
-
14, 15, 16, 17,
-
hmmm, who's absent?
-
Geography lesson...
-
Now, children,
-
we will study the effect history has played on geography.
-
According to today's paper,
-
the boundaries of Thailand, or Siam,
-
but in your book is French Indochina,
-
whereas Persia, now called...well, Mesopotamia,
-
that's not far from the border by Northern India,
-
...that's Pakistan!
-
At the same time, however,
-
The students eagerly return to the classroom
-
Spelling time...
-
George, how do you spell the word "cat"?
-
KAT: K-A-T-, KAT
-
Wrong!
-
Youthful minds are encouraged to develop their latent talents
-
Ah, yes, the creative outlets of the arts and the crafts.
-
Tests and examinations fill out the day,
-
as bright little minds gather knowledge from their teacher.
-
But little hands make the time pass quickly.
-
Contrary to popular belief,
-
the teacher's work is not through at the end of the school day.
-
Oh, no.
-
There are many unfinished chores,
-
blackboards to be cleaned,
-
erasers dusted,
-
and of course the ever-present parent-teacher relationship.
-
What's the matter with my kid's grammar?
-
So it is to this great profession and its halls of learning
-
that we dedicate this
-
When the occasion arises,
-
there are times when disciplinary action must be taken.
