Snake in Class
One of my third-grade students brought in a snake for show and tell. I am afraid of snakes, but since the boy was responsible, I decided to let him go ahead, Another teacher had come in to help that day and, not being fearful of snakes, picked the creature up with the stem of her glasses so everyone could see it.
As she was putting it back into its container, the snake slithered loose, Everyone began to scream and run around while the teacher tired to catch the escape.
To restore calm, I told the children to get into their seats, but one little girl repeatedly refused my orders, Exasperated, I sternly asked her one final time to return to her seat. She turned to me and politely said, \"I can't , Miss Bowdoin. You're standing in my seat.\"
课堂上的蛇
我教的一名三年级学生带了一条蛇到教室作演示讲解。我很怕蛇,不过,既然那蛇由那名男生负责管着,我就决定让他讲解。那天另一位老师也来帮忙,她不怕蛇,所以她用眼镜的支架将那东西挑了起来,好让生个人都看清楚。
当她要把蛇放回笼子时,蛇滑脱了。大家开始尖叫起来,四处乱跑,那个老师拼命去捉那条逃掉的蛇。
为了恢复课堂秩序,我让孩子们回到座位上去。但有一位小女孩拒不执行我的命令。我生气了,最后一次严厉地命令她回到座位上去。她转向我,很礼貌地说道:“我回不去,鲍多茵小姐。你正站在我的座位上呢。” |
