lilmookieesquire
I too, also agree, children should be punished for creative solutions.
rilhaus350
There are two kinds of teachers. 3/10 here, or a high five and 11/10! Don’t you squelch that problem solving and creativity!
CaptSchmidtGaming
that kid knows how to spell. he treated it like a puzzle. you can't teach a fish to swim. that teacher sucks
PhysicsPhren
That wasn't a bad answer; it was a dumb question. Kid deserves full marks.

Octopus isn't a super easy word. So it isn't like they can't spell. This is all power play by student and teacher
FettsMiata
That's not making the teacher look any better, even if this was real.

I'd still count it considering how many kids misspell words that are written. up. on. the board
StephenWhiteYT
I would misspell words on the board to print faster, as I couldn't wrap my head around cursive, so to keep up I would knock letters 1/2
StephenWhiteYT
off of words. It just made sense to me, and still does when I'm writing for just myself. 2/2

The purple print on this paper leads me to believe this meme is from the 1980s
StephenWhiteYT
... It's purple? Welp.. guess that's another to add to the list of "I can't see that colour." :/
dduncan55330
This is honestly a creative and intelligent way to solve the problem lol
FromTheShadow
This is my elementary experience as well
Kerlyle
I once got 0 points on a question like this because I put more words than they asked for. Turns out the real exercise was "follow the rules"
LarvaLamp
I used to hand in vocabulary sentences like "'Obtained' is a word we learned in class"
OldGrabe
And this is how kids creativity gets crushed. Fuck that teacher.
veilsidebpu
So, cheating and corner-cutting now passes as “creativity” ? ...wonderful
StephenWhiteYT
I did that as a kid. I got a bad grade, and my mother pointed out to the teacher that it didn't say you couldn't use the words on the.. 1/?
StephenWhiteYT
page, so my grade was changed to a perfect one, and the teacher added in brackets "Other then the words on the paper." to every other.. 2/?
StephenWhiteYT
paper like that she did up. I kind of feel bad for her, but she did get a laugh out of it, apparently I was the first to do that. 3/?
StephenWhiteYT
For some context it was her first year as a full out teacher so, a lot of firsts. 4/4

Ten words I can spell *correctly* are...

That bugged me as well, this is for a grammar lesson and the grammar IN the lesson is... incorrect.

The teacher has poor grammar. "Ten words I can spell correctly are:" would have been more appropriate. My sarcastic ass would have written
YouBeTrollin
"Right" ten times.

Wait, was that printed on a mimeograph machine from 1965?
ReginaKasteen
The exam, or the meme?

Mimeograps were fairly common here in brazil still in the early 90s.

Seems like a valuable lesson: You can give your supervisors what they asked for instead of what they wanted, but it might not be rewarded.
Anthf
Ahh yes, a good lesson for an adult.
LessonsFromDad
I'd say even more valuably is it is up to a leader to communicate effectively.
therdin
Kid knew what the fuck he was doing. Dont pretend otherwise
LessonsFromDad
Ya, he was using his environment to solve a problem, I'd call that brilliance in my text book. We should never discourage that.
LurkerMcLurkface
Kid apparently has poor reading comprehension. 3/10 is the only correct score here. But it's no problem and something the teacher can change
StephenWhiteYT
The paper doesn't say you can't use the words on it, and those are likely words they could normally spell anyway. Where is the problem?
TheGreatWhiteWolf
People like you that are teachers are ruining & stifling the creativity & out-the-box-thinking of young developing minds.
FieldTester96
What reading comprehension does he need? The key to learning is using every resource you have to your benefit
LurkerMcLurkface
I don't believe the kid could only write those words, it's clever. But the task demand 10 words the kids knows not that it can copy.
Rockjawz
stop encouraging the squashing of creativity and cleverness in schools.
SarcasticComment
Where is such a demand stated? If you do not specifically state what is required, then this is permissible.
SarcasticComment
Enough of this "well in the spirit of the activity" bs where a teacher is covering a mistake they made with authoritarianism.
veilsidebpu
The student isn’t demonstrating their ability to correctly spell words without any aid—that’s what’s being graded here
Anthf
It’s definitely not what’s being asked
veilsidebpu
Clearly, the intent was for a student to demonstrate their *knowledge* of proper spelling not their ability to copy a word.
ThatSniperKille
Life is not without aid, this is academically a poor way to teach. Is it not?
veilsidebpu
From that same perspective let’s not teach students how to add and subtract in their head, because we all have a calculator in our phone

Had they not been in sentance order...would his grade be higher?
sharon838
I know. Teachers being kind of unreasonable. What’s the problem with this?
TheThirteenthDoctor
It's because he used the words in the question, so he only got points for the ones that were not spelled out for him already
sharon838
Thank you. I didn’t see that when I asked the question. Thank you for answering that so kindly.

I don't want to spell ten words correctly, idiot.
ASolitudeGuard
I count 11...
litelbrown
That's true too
SeanSpicey
He misspelled sentence. Making for some delicious irony.
dissykurosu
There are 12 words in that sentence. He only spelled "sentence" wrong, so, 11 words right.
ModernFalconer
Which means he spelled at least 10 words right
