Today was a bundle of fun. I had students learning place values and was having a "race" and of course told my students not to run... but there is always that one student. Needless to say he ripped the knee of his pants when he slid across the carpeted hallway to get to the correct place value first (the wrong one at that). Later I came to find that the student called his parents and said that it was my fault that his pants were ripped and that I told him to run. He got in trouble for this of course, but it definitely didn't brighten my day.
So while looking on the Internet to wind down from my day tutoring in math, I found this quote and wished my students would see this and understand it. I think I am going to make a card or something with this quote on it to remind myself and my students of this great way to live!
If I am walking with two other men, each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them, and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself.
Any ideas on where or how to use this quote???
