I teach in the universe.
Somehow, a company of walkers came to the consultation, they needed to do labs (physics). I gave them a task, equipment, walked between tables, explained what exactly to do, and went to the lab.
A minute after ten came out, I see, everything is busy (who the chain gathers, who the pendulum torments, who the prisma turns - depending on the missed lab). Except for one. He rides on a chair with a sad sight and breathes hard. I approach him and ask:
Why are you doing nothing?
You need to count, but I don’t have a calculator.
“Well, count the column,” I suggest, checking the work of the other lobotrases and returning to the lab.
I go out again in ten minutes and see that nothing has changed. I go back to the student and ask again:
Why are you doing nothing?
From his response, I suffered a week of laughter attacks:
– Olga Vladimirovna, and what to count? You didn’t give me a column!
The boy did not learn - was deducted for failure. He will forever live in our hearts.
