Drum as a Gift for his Good Academic Results

Lunz is having his mid semester holiday now, for 2 weeks. Before the school holidays started, parents have to attend the parents-teachers day meeting at his school. You know, just to brief you on the child's academic and social development and his exam results. The teacher told me, Lunz was doing very good academically. In fact, just 10 minutes after the exam started he has already finished his paper. He even taught his friends who sat next to him on how to do the exam sheets. According to the teacher, Lunz saw his friend filled in the answer wrongly and told his friend, "No, wrong dy" and wrote the correct answers for his friend.

His teacher asked him not to do so and to sit down quietly. But the next moment she looked away, he was back to correcting his friend again. So his teacher asked him to sit at the corner, far away from the rest of the children. At first, he thought that his teacher was punishing him for not obeying her instruction but the teacher explained to me that she told Lunz she was not actually punishing him. She was just asking him to sit at one corner so that he wouldn't interrupt the other children who were still undergoing the test. Then, I asked the teacher, does he know what you are trying to tell him and that you are not actually punishing him? The teacher told me Lunz nodded wor. She said he understands. So cute.

As he got 'A's for all his exam papers, we got him a drum as a gift!
