In which two ways are the mother and the teacher similar?

(It is the night of the annual parent-teacher conference in school. Sara is a new student in class and is nervous about how her mother and teacher will interact. Sara enters the classroom with her mother ahead of her. Sara nervously holds on to her mother's hand as Mrs. Blake, Sara’s teacher, spots them and stands up to greet her mother.)

MRS. BLAKE: How do you do, Mrs. Parker? It’s nice to finally meet you.

MRS. PARKER: It’s nice to meet you too, Mrs. Blake. Sara spoke highly of you.

(Sara looks at her teacher shyly, her face turning red with embarrassment. Mrs. Blake smiles at Sara.)

MRS. BLAKE: Thank you, Sara. That is very kind of you. Mrs. Parker, I would like to talk to you about your daughter.

(Sara appears nervous at this comment. She begins fidgeting with her hands and looks away. Her mother notices this nervous behavior.)

MRS. PARKER: Is there something wrong? Has she done something wrong in class?

MRS. BLAKE: Of course not. I am glad to have a well-behaved student like Sara in my class. Her grades are quite good. However, I believe if she tries harder, she can make the honor roll.

MRS. PARKER: She isn’t misbehaving?

MRS. BLAKE: Not at all. She is a sincere and dedicated student. That's why I know she can be on the honor roll this semester.

MRS. PARKER: I’m so glad to hear that. It is wonderful to hear my daughter being praised by her teacher. Sara, wouldn’t you like to thank Mrs. Blake?

(Sara looks up at her teacher in surprise. Mrs. Blake simply smiles at her, and soon Sara's face breaks into a wide grin.)

SARA: Thank you so much, Mrs. Blake. I was really nervous about what you had to say. But after hearing your praise, I want to work harder to improve my grades. Trust me, Mrs. Blake. I won’t let you down.

(Mrs. Blake shuffles her papers and looks happy.)

Both have a caring attitude toward Sara.
Both are concerned about how Sara will do on exams.
Both fear that Sara’s timid behavior will affect her overall performance in class.
Both motivate Sara to work harder in order to get the best grades in the class.
Both are overconfident about Sara’s potential to get the best grades in the class.

1. It was many and many a year ago,

In a kingdom by the sea,

By the name of Annabel Lee;

And this maiden she lived with no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me.

Her hardest hue to hold.

Nothing gold can stay.

Most public elementary schools in the United States do not have sports teams. There are many reasons for this. Sports equipment is very expensive, and it takes time to build stadiums and fields. Coaches must be found, and sports doctors must be on hand in case someone gets hurt. But sports teams can also be beneficial for children. Sports teams teach kids how to work together, give them confidence, and provide an outlet for physical activity.
All sports teams, from basketball to soccer, require people to work together. Children can especially benefit from this cooperation. Coaches teach teamwork in addition to physical skills. They teach children how to work well with each other, even if they are not friends. For example, my friend Jeremy is on a soccer team. One teammate is a boy named Ronnie. They are not friends, but they are good teammates and know how to play together to win a game. This is just one example of children working together to achieve a common goal.
Sports teams also give children confidence. As they learn more skills and become better at a sport, children become more confident in their own abilities. They learn that they are good at something and feel proud of that. For example, my classmate Elizabeth has played basketball for three years. When she first started, she barely knew how to dribble. Now, she makes two out of three free throw shots. She knows that she is a pretty good basketball player. Children need to feel confident so that they have high self-esteem.
The last benefit to elementary school sports teams is physical activity. Children today do not get as much exercise as they need. Instead of playing outside, they sit inside watching television, playing video games, and chatting on computers. Sports teams would give children the chance to get more exercise. If children played sports in elementary school, they would get into a habit of exercising at a young age. This is very important to their future health.
While sports teams would cost schools a lot of time and money, I believe that elementary schools should have sports teams, at least for older grades. Schools could work with local professional teams to raise money. Volunteers could coach until the schools can afford to pay coaches. Many parents would be happy to volunteer to get teams started. Team sports help teach children valuable lessons they can use later in life.
