I was thinking about, way back, when I was in school and how the classes that I did well in were, as I remember, a direct result of my experience of the teacher. I loved those teachers and thought fondly of them. Those teachers made, what they were teaching me, interesting. They even invoked some fun into these classes. I actually looked forward to being in their class. Yet there were other teachers I was terrified of. I was so scared to answer a question in the event it was the wrong answer.
Learning Should Be Fun
When I re-visit my childhood and think of those teachers I loved
I recognize some similarities
Those teachers I loved and think fondly of and made learning fun
And always did so very much to please
Why is it some teachers feel that they should be real mean
And make the children afraid to be wrong
Don’t they realize they’re inhibiting their growth
By closing down the child’s inner song
Don’t get me wrong I am aware
That respect is needed between the teacher and the child
And as long as that respect is going both ways
They won’t find that child running wild
I really feel that our teachers should be supported
And encouraged to make learning fun
This way the children might enjoy going to school
And also graduate when they are done
