Howdy!
I had the most WONDERFUL experience today!
One of my little students, 12 year old T., sang a near PERFECT “I dreamed a dream” from Les Miz today that brought tears to my eyes.
Then, she told me about an experience she had today in school. In 7th grade, they had a substitute civics teacher who was an obvious liberal, and he gave them an essay test which asked “what is your OPINION on such-and-such”?”
After handing in her paper, T. was called to the front of the room and told in front of the class that her answer was WRONG!
T. very calmly said, “Sir, you asked me my opinion. You did not ask for the liberal opinion, or the Conservative opinion, or the democrat opinion, or the republican opinion. You asked me for MY opinion, and I gave to you.”
The teacher was stunned. he said, “ WHERE did you learn to think like that?”
T. answered, “From listening to Rush. You ought to try it sometime.”
H gave her an “A”.
That kid is my hero!!! LOL!
I’m gonna share it on Facebook...since you didn’t use any real names. It’s AWESOME!!!
Promise, no one will know where it came from. :)
OH MY GAWD!!!!
That is priceless!!!!!
Thankfully she had a teacher who understood words and their meaning.
I have to share this with everyone I know!!
Good to hear.
