Sitting Right

Did you ever sit the wrong way?

This week at the morning assembly at my “ghetto school”, after the students had formed perfect lines, bowed, and said good morning in perfect unison, they sat down to listen the principal’s weekly speech.

Partway through the speech, teachers started going up and down the rows tapping students on the shoulder who were sitting with their legs crossed and their hands in their lap. This tap meant that they were to adjust their position, raise their knees in front of them, put their feet flat on the floor, and wrap their arms under their legs to support them in this position.

Well at least we all know how to sit properly now.
