18 “ CASTLEGAR*NEWS, Thursday, Feb, 28, 1967 By F. B, Pearce Can’ t Prevent Children From Being Happy Childhood, we are told, is the happiest time in life which ‘is pro- bab! wh: i press upon child- ren that life is real and life is ‘ @arnest and they should fore- swear such a frivolous thing as happiness. Of course it is impossible to- prevent children from. being happy. They sandwich it in -be- ‘tween the times when adults are busy ordering their destinies and, on the whole, do not make a bad job of it. They sllde away from home and parents and patient- ly endure schoo] and why school is not a happy place is some- ) thing worth investigating by all these educational experts who make their living telling the rest of us what to do. For school is not normally a happy place and the powers that be frown on even the slight- est levity and yet once, many years ago an i blew into many years to the place where good teachers go but mem- ory remains with me for he was one of the many good principals who preceded me in the Central School. He was the exception, There were other inspectors who sat with cold and observant eye watching and ‘criticising, They wanted the class to be quiet and there are still those who rate a teacher by the quietness of his class and they are-not alone in this. Many teachers as: well as principals bow down to this same false god. For it isa false god. Quiet- ness ale a simulation of death. Life is shown by movement and action and if the body is con- centrating on keeping quiet the mind is. doing ‘nothing either. There is, of course, a necessi that schools should be reaosn- that schools should be reason- not throttle enthusiasm and the pleasure of learning. - I had many excellent: teach- ers in my time. One in particu- lar was~ noted for her. quiet class and its high achievement— she was certainly an outstanding teacher, but when I went in one afternoon, ten minutes before -closing time, and found the class sitting motionless, quietly walt- ing for the bell to ring I had my doubts. It did not Boom right to me for a grade six class to exists even for ten minutes in a vacuum, On the other hand I had a grade one teacher who was easily the noisiest in the school district, Her voice was so loud and ‘she used it so much that the bishop complained that she disturbed his: devotions in his chapel across the ‘road. It didn't disturb the children in her class, They were very happy and alive. They enjoyed learning’ and one of my teach- ers told: me she. could always spot her pupils when they came ity | to grade six by their eager atti- tude ‘toward learning. Perhaps the way for parents to assess the teacher is listen to the children. If they’ come home happily recounting what teacher ‘said and did they can rest content. They can Yarow [9 away the report card, Their child is in good hands. my classroom, breezily introduc- ed himself and then told me sit down. He would take the class, And then for the next couple of hours he enjoyed ihmself and so did the pupils too. . Most of the time they were half out of their desk reaching toward him and all of them were alive with pleasure.
