March 19.
I first brought in goldy and frodo at school for the Open House.
The kids loved it very much so I decided to just let it stay in our classroom and have it as a pet.
March 23. Gloomy day
Frodo died this afternoon.
Earl said it might have been because the kids are tapping the fishbowl or overfed. I thought Frodo had some kind of heart attack.
As I watch the lifeless fish floating, I noticed the other fish Goldy swimming around then would gently stroke cheek on Frodo’s as if kissing a dear friend goodbye. Maybe fishes when they’re heartbroken, cry too.
While all these are going on, I almost didn’t felt that one of my kids’ attention was on me pala.
Bianca caringly asked, “teacher, sad ka?”
I said “yes.”
End of day.
March 24. Beyond Alphabets and Numbers
When Bianca arrived at school today, she hurriedly got in our classroom and handed me an orange bag. Not realizing yet what’s in it, I asked her, “What’s this?”
Her excited and pretty face lighted up even more
when she answered,
“goldfish.”
