This story is funny. This story happened many years ago when rural
teachers lacked confidence in facing their classes. 

The story happened many years ago even before the author was born. 

Before the computer age, many teachers are illiterate in handling
computers. Our story is not all about computers. 

In a certain community of no less than 300 people, there were only 3
teachers. From Grades 1 to 6, only 3 taught all subjects in elementary 
curriculum. So, we cannot deny that they were not totally proficient in 
all subjects. 

One time inside the schoolroom situation. 

TEACHER: Class, our lesson for today is all about picture analyis.You
are going to name the picture that I am going to show you. Is it clear? 


Children: Yes, Ma`am. 

Beforehand, the teacher had already prepared her visual materials. 

TEACHER: Okay, here is it.(Showing a picture of a dog) 

Children: What is that Ma`am? 

TEACHER: This is a kind of animal that you may have in your home? 

Children: Is that a cat,Ma`am? 

TEACHER: Nope. 

Children: Then, what is that? 

TEACHER: Think more. 

Cecilia: Ma`am, I guess I saw it already. And the fact is I have my own
like that. 

TEACHER: So, what is this, Cecilia? 

Cecilia: A dog. 

TEACHER: Very good! 

Then, all the class understood that the picture being shown was a dog. 

TEACHER: Now, Class, I want you all to pronounce this as dog when I show
this to you. 

Children: Yes, Ma`am. 

TEACHER: Class(raising the picture}, this is a dog. Class, what is this?


Children: a dog Ma`am. 

TEACHER: Good. Again, class this is .... 

Children: Dog. 

One day a supervisor happened to visit her class. 

Children: Good morning, Ma`am: 

Supervisor: Good. Miss Lanie, I shall observe your class right now. 

So, unprepared Lanie thought about yesterday`s lesson. She readily got
her visula aids. 

LANIE: (nervous) DOG, THIS IS A .... 

Children: CLASS, Ma`am. 

LANIE: Oh, no!
