Be Nice

Today at Brian's morning circle at school the subject was manners. He was there without an aide and he was being quite loud and one of the teachers removed him for a minute until he was quiet and then he went back. A minute or so later the head teacher asked the class, "Okay, so what did we learn today?" Brian was sitting all by himself (well with no teachers near him to prompt him) and he raised his hand, waited for the teacher to call on him, and then said, "Be nice." As clear as day.

I wasn't there to witness this unfortunately but was told by his teachers at the end of the day. My jaw hit the floor!
