It is necessary to be serious and stern in the classroom. With some children Punishment has to be used. Its only a few children in every class who are outstanding and who learn fast. Maths is a difficult subject. In a Child friendly classroom the teacher should ignore discipline problems. If a child has not scored well that means that he has not understood or studied the topic. If a child asks a question, we should tell the answer. Some children do not want to study; they just want to play. Children learn well by having marks to strive for. We ought to tell children what we think is important to know. Teaching means showing the child what is right and what is wrong. Some subjects are more important then others. Some children are fussy eaters Choose whether you believe each statement to be True or False
