Recently our Teacher of the Year gave us an inspiring speech. In it she told us to be sure to really listen to our kids and to be sure to ask questions. She learned this, she said, when a student of hers came running up to her, all upset, because another student had said the dreaded "F" word. She pulled the "F" word kid aside and chewed him out but good. When the child was finally crying, she stopped yelling, thus giving him time to respond. His response?
"I didn't know phooey was a bad word!!!!"
