Abstract

The children were bouncy and full of energy and did not seem inclined to being confined to their seats, though not all of them were running around. Just five or six of them were being playful and noisy. As I went and sat beside the quieter ones, the playful ones came to show what they had written. Many of them were in such a hurry to get my attention, they had not completed their work. I told them very firmly that I would come to look at their work when their turn came. The littlest one tried to pull me to her seat. Another child explained to her that she should not do this, as I was their Guruma (head teacher), and the little one stopped, and they all went back to their places.
