In the ...I would go with the "pizza for everyone".<br /><br />In the 13 years I spent in school, I learned that my bad grade had nothing to do with me being brilliant. A pizza lunch for those adapted "say what the teacher wants to hear" guys, would only have stressed my observation. Instead: Pizza for everybody would have made me feel way more accepted.<br /><br />Besides I think school selects for adapted mediocricy and reproducers anyway. Pizza and good will doesn#t change that. What we need are exceptional and creative no sayers, who are able to synthesise knowledge rather than reproduce... and ignore pizza lunches and instead spent time reflecting who not to end up as a teacher.<br /><br />Besides those, who become teachers because they love teaching, the majority of people ending up as teachers failed to achieve something else. And I don't want loosers or underachievers spoil my kids for 13 years...<br /> <br />Cheers ArendAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
