some of my kids got excited (again?!) by the squirrels outside our window who live in the tree that's in the unaccessible back garden.
they went all nuts talking loudly with each other and got walked in on by their class teacher.
uh-oh.
"vous etes tous punis pendant la recree jusqu'au lundi!" (all of you are punished during break till next monday!)
then when i got back to school, i received verbal apologies, and those as shown above in the picture.
they read:
1. je respecte les adultes.
2. je ne fais pas le pitre en anglais. (i will not be a fool in english classes.)
they were read and signed by parents and the headmaster.
while just copying lines, they still made mistakes. after all, they're only 6. what would i expect?
instead of je ne fais pas, one wrote, je me fais pas...
instead of en anglais, someone skipped "en". so playing a fool the english way?
kids are kids, i understand thoroughly why they'd rather be watching squirrels jumping from branch to branch than learning how to say some bizarre word like 'strawberries' in english.
i was that kid, too.
