Today i took my son to a scienc museum. At the time of our visit, some 300 students of Standart-II or III entered the 'Prehistoric Life PArk'.We were also at the park when the students entered there. Only two teachers were accompanying them and they naturally could not quenche the thirst of the students for knowledge. Seeing he situation, I started telling the students what I know. I told them to read steadily the boards and labels. Some of the students really enjoyed my lecture and approached me for more. But to my surprise, the teachers came and stopped us rudely from discussing as if I was doing something wrong in helping the little students knowing better.They yelled at the students "You can not take so long time. Come back!Come Back!" I was surprise what the students may learn from a 15 minute visit to the park where the whole evolutionary history of life on earth starting from the giant squid to human being was arranged. Isn't it a meaningless visit for the students?
