this teaching malarky

Not been a great day and its been another long one. I have however
discovered what I should be doing with this teaching malarky.
Apparantly all I have to do is tell the kids something.
One wee laddie
is always in a dwam. I turn cart wheels in order to try to get his
attention... the rest of the class always know what to do.. he never
does. Today was the second day his group was introduced to the half
hour and he was getting everything right. Always looking for an excuse
to praise, I told him he was doing well. He said..
" aye bit miss yi telt us aboot this yesterday"

... so there you go all I have to do is tell them!
