I don't ever recall seeing Einstein use the word 'fuck' in any of his texts, just as I'm sure he knew how to spell "taught". I'd be surprised if he knew what a paua was, much less seek one out as a teacher, but then again he was a smart guy, and recognised that he still had many things to learn from many quarters.
Isaac Newton was taught much about physics by an apple, which some may consider to have even less intelligence than a paua.
Keep on chooglin'
Okay, so I know this isbut it's my thread so what the hell. (Not going to start a new thread since this is still tied up with schools).
Read this morning about a teacher down in Flaxmere (at the kura kaupapa school) who is in the shit over the fact that he lost his rag with his students. Students who have admitted to making a game of baiting him in quite an extreme fashion.
Apparently they said he would start off asking them politely to behave but would go to such extremes to disobey, disrespect and even physically abuse him all in order to get him to lose his temper.
FFS, these are primary school kids! No wonder some of them are such no hopers by the time they reach secondary school age. Those parents must be awfully proud of the way their kids have been taught to behave.......
I wonder where the kids learned how to behave in such a way... but kids are getting much older much younger and the school system needs to find a way to deal with it... Personally i'd be allowing them more discussion time, let them chat for an hour a day in regards to common issues, something they all share... but that's just 1 idea. Perhaps they'll start viewing their fellow students and teachers in a new light...
I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!
