Classroom Conflicts and Resolutions

You tore my paper, I’ll tell the teacher. You stole my rubber, I’ll tell the teacher. She’s like a tiger,

she’ll roar even louder— Better be careful, she’ll smack you harder!

My name is Babber, I fear nothing ever. Let her come here, I’m brave and clever. I am the topper,

she knows I’m better— One look at me and her anger gets lighter. My name is Carle, I am your teacher.

My stick knows no topper, it makes all straighter. Whether you’re topper or backbencher.

“Sorry teacher!” says Babber in terror, “I’ll never again do a single error.” “Good,” says Carle,

“now make it proper. Go ahead Babber… say sorry to Parker.” “Sorry Parker,” Babber says slower—

And the fight ends with peace forever.
