I am an elementary teacher. I visited another classroom today. The teacher shared her concern with me of a new boy in her class. He's so shy...talks to no one...is not 'into' school...doesn't play with others at recess. I pulled up a chair beside him and attempted making small talk with him. He proceeded to give me limited answers to my genuine questions. Then I asked him what his favorite thing to do at home was. His face lit up and he launched into a FULL report about the '45 H Farmall he and dad are overhauling at home. He spared no details. I got the complete story from start to finish. I was as excited as he was! He then went on to tell how they would probably be starting it up some night this week. We talked a bit more and then I walked around the room and talked/worked with some other youngsters. Each time I looked back at my new friend his face was still BEAMING. School and home had finally connected! Every time I happened by he had more overhaul details for me. I told him we were friends for life! What a wonderful experience for both of us! Perhaps someday I will teach him all about a REAL tractor...my '54 SC Case, ha! Thought you folks would enjoy this story. Quite often I drop over to your board to see how you red guys are doing. Thanks, Glenn F.
