One of our Grade 1 pupils told me that he would go with us to the original site of Lugmah Elementary School by June, 2018. The TIC of Lugmah Elementary School, Sir Alnasvier I. Abduljalil was kidding with the schoolchild. He was so happy hearing the schoolchild saying those words.
"What grade are you in by June" Sir Alnasvier I. Abduljalil asked the schoolchild.
"Grade 2, Sir" the schoolchild responded.
"Can you touch your left with your right hand" the TIC asked.
"Surely, I can, Sir" the child immediately dit it.
"Your right ear with your left hand" Sir Alnasvier instructed.
"Surely, I can, Sir" the child happily did it.
Sir Alnasvier I. Abduljalil was reminded of the one of the practices those days by traditional teachers. Those days, age qualification for Grade 1 learner was 7 years old. If the teacher would doubt the age of a child, the teacher asked the child to touch left ear with right hand and right ear with left hand. If a child could do it, the teacher would surely admit the child in Grade 1 class.
