In her sixth period today, Mrs. Cox has taught a poem by a well-known black writer in the United
States. She wrote the poem on the blackboard and read it aloud.
No sooner had she finished reading the poem than students' questions began pouring in. One boy said
the poem was heart-breakingly sad. Another student, a girl, said she had read a book by the same writer, but she wasn't able to enjoy it as much as her mother did, and she didn't know why. A third, a keen
viewer of TV theatre, recognized a phrase in the poem which had been used as the title of a recent play.
As she answered the questions, Mrs. Cox made sure that her students understood every line of the
poem.  he  asked  them  to  discuss  if  the  poem  contained  any  message.  The discussion became so
lively that no one wanted to stop when the bell rang. Some said there was no message, some said it didn't
really matter, and the class ended at that.
As she drove home, Mrs. Cox thought about the class she had just left. Today she could feel good
about what she had accomplished as a teacher. None of her students looked bored. Every one of them
seemed interested in the poem. Once they started to talk, they forget about the time. She did not have
to make them learn? she only had to answer their questions and to guide the discussion. This, she thought
to herself, is what teaching is all about!
