Teacher and the barn owl
Cristobal Cisternas
This barn owl had been the wisest bird in the world, side of a teacher, talking between the owl and the teacher in each room, he had impressed the owl by telling a lot of good and bad news, he warned the teacher if he understood.
"I already knew those very old stories of traditional literature, of the Ancient Age, that I would like to tell you the fabulous words."
"Where did you know in his long memory?" said the teacher with interest to the talkative bird. "My master taught me, he was a great teacher and two hundred years, he revealed the most distant books of many years, they spoke to me to tell me that I love hearing those stories. But I will always teach you other things so that you learn a knowledge of the whole world that I can guide you."
"Where is your teaching?" the teacher asked the barn owl.
"I have a good idea, for your class, my students," said the timed owl to a teacher.
"You can't because you are an animal for the class of each school, I have the responsibility to teach them," exclaimed the teacher who challenges the barn owl, with pity, who passes the idea in thought to another.
The owl began to tell his most beautiful advice to the teacher is surprising the most brilliant bird, he has changed his open mind if I accept that being able to go to class for the owl was happy. The next day, in the morning, the teacher and the owl are here in the little school with a class. Every hour those students were younger coming to the teacher's class that I had, now we are surprising before they marched to the class at the door, they saw that animal appears in the school, with a long stick hanger it looks like a coat rack, for the owl was posing that.
"What? Because the owl is in our class, they said.
They laughed at the rumor that we have thought impossible and absurd in a silly animal for the mascot, the owl felt quite annoyed when the students asked the teacher, he was unsure what to say there while the owl shouted loudly to get attention, because he was angry, the students scared some, come to that one, he thought the first time he heard of the owl that speak well.
"I'm an educator, let me make fun of our class," said the owl.
"Sorry," they said there.
Teacher calmed little relief by tolerant gesture that told him little to teach side of the barn owl, we started teaching philosophy in symbol of the bird, the students asked the owl some doubts, while teacher took exams for student notes for all the papers at a desk, have comfortable time.
The barn owl spoke to students attentive interests and content as encouragement to understand philosophy teaching by the owl.
"There is talk of the art of thinking: “art” means in this sense a certain virtue or ability to do…."
The owl told many speeches that had the longest words, the students were amazed and agreed to applause while the Professor admired there, the students want to ask the owl more, he will be able to advise that by saying a deep from another world for something more important.
Three hours later, the students came out to greet the teacher and the owl in the class, he felt impressed.
"Congratulations, you can be a teacher," the teacher replied to the owl, because he loves the class forever, I hope the class will be.
