The Classroom Speaks
The walls lean in, murmuring secrets of weary days, while chairs sigh beneath tired bodies. Words from hollow lips strike like stones— they refuse to soften, echoing in empty corners. My lessons pulse with purpose, glowing faintly in the dust, each one breathes life into silent desks. They wait, expectant—hungry for curious eyes. Even the blackboard leans forward, eager to share every truth...

The Keeper of the Circle
I do not rule with iron hand, but with the rhythm of sacred sand— each grain a word, each line a sign, where order breathes and hearts align. Before the lesson dares to start, I plant the law with quiet art: Not carved in stone, but shaped in grace— a whispered guide, a steady place. I walk not tall with voice raised high, but...

Premium Member Schools are Changing
Gates once locked with poverty's rust now swing on golden hinges Every child a key-holder: the girl whose fingers paint light from darkness, the boy who dreams in mother tongues and thinks in mathematics, wheels spinning stories across threshold stones. Breakfast arrives with sunrise and hope, satellites whisper knowledge to mountaintops, libraries gallop on horseback to forgotten villages. Schools are changing. Democracy breathes in corridors where...

It can be fun
Teaching was full of fun, Before these emails had begun, Class was toiling away, Doorknock, answer right away, Despite my scholars' pleading, Switched them all to silent reading, Vital, sign your name, X or Y, Choose one, class did sigh, Who won that football game? Who came second, who's to blame? Sign your name, you see, X means you teach literacy, Star, you can teach the IRA, You...

Teaching
The Ones who Teach, help us Learn, And in The End, become, a Quick source of a Friend. We are Bound to Seperate, And Fall to different Lines or Paths. But Maybe, —Still— Make a Friend. ...

I’m a nobody, until
I’m just a cackling controller (sit straight, listen, stop talking) Until I stop to look into your eyes It’s the wonder in them which makes me a teacher I’m just a watching monitor (settle down, take your things, write neatly) Until I stop and pay attention to your work It’s the magic in your hands that make me a teacher I’m...

Today again, I went to go teach, totally unprepared. And fearing the principal would come observe me had me so scared, I rambled through the room, floundering and fluttering. And then a student asked, "Mr J, why are you muttering? Do I sense maybe ~ you're just a little bit impaired?"...

Teaching
Every day, I try my best To achieve the impossible goal Of teaching children Sometimes it’s a puzzle That I can’t solve, Where nothing comes together, And none of the pieces fit Other times, it’s a dance, Endlessly rehearsed— Only the steps keep changing, And the audience doesn’t care Sometimes it's a blind search: An endless groping in the dark For a light switch that isn’t there, Or doesn’t work But...

Unreachable Role
By George P. Lumayag The cast tried to act his dramatic role in the teaching-learning arc; He portrayed a character he knew very much with a very adjusted tone of his artistic acts. He loved it so he danced overnight, and he mastered it in daylight. He believed he was a prolific actor therefore he portrayed his best. His character was exposed...
