Yeah, I had some teachers when I was in school that would just hand you a paper, hand you a book, and that was it.
I legitimately asked why we couldn’t just do this from home if he was just going to put on earphones and watch a portable tv.
I was told “because then we wouldn’t know if you’re cheating”.
I said “cheating how?” (The internet wasn’t a thing yet)
And he said “by looking up the information in another book”
So I said “First of all, what even is the difference between looking it up in a different book as opposed to look it up in this book? And secondly, if you think I’m too lazy to study with THIS book, what makes you think I’d study with a different book??? It’s the same process!”

Couldn’t do that if I even tried. I’d be so bored, I’d have to teach just to pass the time quicker lol
I was educated in Australia for quite some time and we kind of formed friendships with our teachers. Always ceremonious thank yous, gifts, and hugs from the class as we’d finish up the year and move onto new teachers.
Will never forget Mr Schwartz, Mr Hornby, and Ms Chamberlain. Teachers that lit up our worlds and had massive respect from all the kids.
