I got caught once not doing my homework on multiplication table of 3. I would just multiply when it was my turn. I was daydreaming something and not prepared. Said I forgot my notebook. I was also away for when we learned to name human bones, and English lesson when to use ”it’s __ o’clock”
•What stories do you remember hearing as a child that taught you so valuable a lesson you still remember them to this day?
