I'm glad that Miss Temple let Skippy write with his left hand. Some teachers back then would force a left handed child to use his or her right hand.

My first thought was almost no one today would let such a young one walk to school alone. Yet me (I’m 56) and my siblings did that every day to grade school in the late 60’s and early 70’s. After that we took the school bus to junior high. Today’s parents would be much more likely to drive their youngsters to school, then let them walk due to fears of abduction. I’m glad my youth was as carefree as it was and one with no fears really.

You and I are the same age. I was born August 27,1963. Elementary school was okay until I started third grade. I had a mean the teacher who hated me and my grandma died that year. Then the fourth grade was horrible because we moved to another town and their school had a different curriculum than my old school. Then we moved into my grandfathers house and I went into the fifth and sixth grade atmy old school. Then I started Junior High School. Now that was three years in Hell for me. I was bullied every day from day one until the last day of ninth grade. High school was fun. I loved it so much I was absent only about five days in three years. I graduated June 10,1981.

I walked to and from kindergarten by myself when I was 4. I thought it was scary walking alone to and from school. The boy who lived across the street helped me. I think he knew I was afraid. We never walked home together, but he was close by, and did did somersaults on people’s front lawns. I laughed at his antics. My mother had a two-year old and a newborn; my older sister attended a different school that was 6 blocks away in a different direction; and my mother didn’t drive at the time. Anyway, in the past, children were expected to walk to and from school.

@@cybersee9966 Born late '65. Three months shy of my fifth b-day I was walking 1/2 mile each way to kindergarten. 1st grade too. Uphill, no less. Joking aside, when you lived that close, everyone walked, biked, or someone drove you. After we moved(several times) a group of us waited at a corner for the bus. There were no adults with us. That's just how it was. Sure we got into mischief now and again, but nothing serious. We were just kids growing up and having fun. It's a bummer some young people today can't have similar experiences because of safety concerns.

This was made the same year I was born, and five years later, in kindergarten, things were very much like this. We had a wonderful teacher---Mrs. Blackhurst---who never, ever forgot a student or their name, no matter how many years might have passed since she last saw them. I saw her for the last time when I was in my early 20's and a new mother, and I was wishing my son could have a teacher like her when he'd start school five years from then. She's long gone now, died at the age of 100, but none of us who had her for our kindergarten teacher ever forgot her.

Also, they didn't have internet and the media presence we have today so a lot of stories went unreported. It's like my mom told me, " There were just certain things people didn't talk about in those days" So they either didn't know or didn't want to know? 🤷

Teachers can make or break a child's love for learning. Most all of my children had great ones too. Unfortunately, my son had one single teacher that almost ruined his schooling. She actually told him he had ADD and made him sit by himself, isolated.(this was in 4th grade) Fortunately the next teacher was AWESOME and really brought him out of his shell and taught him-learning can be fun again.

I'm 44, and when i was in school,we would never have dared answer a teacher or any other school official with 'yeah' or 'naw'. It was 'yes sir/ma'am', or 'no sir/ma'am'. Though teaching a child that skill is fading,it's not totally lost..i still smile when I'm in a store and hear a child answering that way,bc they'll go places in life.

My grandma walked me home from school. My father took me to school every morning from grade 1 until grade 2. I was so little I couldn't reach the door knob, according to my mom. But I never walked to school alone after my grandma died and we moved into my grandparents house. My sister and our neighborhood children all walked to and from school. I barely remember my first grade classroom. We sat at a desk alone in rows like Beaver Cleavers classmates . My teacher was named Mrs. Nancy Hanks. I remember nothing about my second grade year. The only thing I remember was my teachers name, Mrs. Bonnie Lowe. And the first day of school I only remember a word on the blackboard, Listen.

My worst subject was arithmatic. My father would sit with me with my workbook and ask me stuff about counting money and I couldn't count it correctly. I would cry and he would sit there at the kitchen table, smoking one cigarette after another and yelling at me saying stuff like" No! That's not right, we'll sit here until you do it right!" I finally understood how to add and subtract later on. Later on I learned how to multiply and kater in how to divide. But that was in fourth grade. I only could do simple division. Like 9 divided by 90. After that to this day, I couldn't understand long division, fractions and percentages. Luckily I didn't have to have Algebra to graduate. That was my worst subject. I have a number problem. But I caan still add, subtract and multiply. The kids nowadays do math differently than we did in the late 60s and 70s.

At many of our local schools, children have only 10 minutes a day on the playground & 20 minutes to eat their lunch & the rest of the day is very academically driven (with gym, library, music & art once’s a week). I think that’s a big problem with many society today. Too many people don’t know how to interact with other humans anymore. Yes kids should have chores & responsibilities, but they should have plenty of time to be children. They have the rest of their lives to work like adults.

​@@reginafallangie2867 I understand where you are coming from, there needs to be a middle ground. Force too much on them too young and they will be too stressed, but in my view, putting such a large divide between adulthood and childhood where they live so differently, will do as much if not more harm for their functioning as adults. Kids should be given time to relax and have hobbies and enjoy themselves not in the name of "childhood" but because they are also people. But it also should not be something that they will on average not be able to have ever again as adults, hard schoolwork is stressful, but in my opinion, having to adjust to such different routines and way of life right after school is way more psychologically difficult than adjusting to the unforgiving nature of adult life. (Of course, in a perfect world I would not want adult life to be as difficult as it is either.) I assume you're from the USA, and the schooling system there as a whole from the things they teach and the methods is far from perfect, same as mine in Turkey. It sadly does little to prepare children for adulthood, while at the same time putting a lot on their shoulders that both socially and academically is not as significant as it could be.

Interesting lesson. I remember learning the 3 R's and painting in class in 1st Grade, even though it was a decade later. And my parents taught me a similar lesson about earning and saving for a bicycle and were willing to pay for 1/2 the cost of a new bike when I was 9.

Strange to think Miss Temple was born in the 1920's! 😳 She's probably looking around at the students of 1953 like, "Kids these days!" 😆

i wish our classrooms would be just like schools in the 40s and 50s the schools there was very historical and very decent and now our schools are normal, badass and alright now, me at the age of 13 that repeated a year from last year and studying in a school and capital that shows schools with names of famous people that died, i just find my country Brazil, a very interesting country to have schools like these since 1800s

Lemme rephrase my "no"; Rape Kidnapping Pedophilia Serial killers Corrupted churches Feral people Wild animals Pollution Disgusting and evil teenagers Evil abused kids Abusive parents(which was an accepted stupid fucking norm.) Racism Slavery in some places Sex trafficking Blackmail Bribery Fucked up cops And all of these on a scale of : "Anything can happen anytime no matter what or where you are." It's the fucking same with more and more retarded things like Tiktok challenges that the app doesn't remove till after 300 deaths. Have fun thinking about this and regretting your words.

Just hops on a 2 wheeler and goes? Heck I had training wheels - for months! A lousy sense of balance necessitated that. When my older brothers insisted on removing the training wheels I had a fit. But it was easier than I anticipated. I was the smartest kid in my first grade - it just had to be that way. The 1B teacher hated my mother and took it out on me. The 1A teacher gave me 3rd grade books to read and sent me outside to play all afternoon.

5:35 the amount of effort that poor girl’s mother went through to make her hair like that… for a day at school… wouldn’t it be easier to keep the curlers in and just pop on a wig? You’d have to get up extra extra early to do all that.
