[HANASHIR:1379] Such professional appreciation

[Red Sea Blue <Jess...>]

So I just came back from cheder where I was working with 6-8yr olds.

I was teaching them a new funky little number, we had got through the first
verse and chorus. Just as I thought they were catching on nicely and
getting into the groove a little lad pipes up:-

" The next chorus is the same as the one that we just sang - so do we
really have to sing it again?"

It was as if they had just lifted ten bags of coal up a hill, and I now
wanted them to lift another ten.

Perhaps its just because I forgot to tell him that singing is an enjoyable
activity.

Luckily I felt like laughing, and not crying.
