Childhhod memory about school before the age of 8

My childhood memory about school before the age of 8 was when i was in the 1 st grade. My teacher name was Mrs. Landrum and she was 75 years old. She was a very little older lady that really needed to retire. This lady was a great teacher but she noved very slow. At this age i didnt have lots of experience with older people. So i acted like the normal six year old. I was very busy and talked alot. One day i was talking so much the teacher put my name on the board. I didnt know what that meant! But by the end of the day i surely found out! I had no idea that the school allowed the teachers to swat the students with their yard sticks. After being swatted on my behind i learned very fast never to talk in her class again! Now, i believe after that year teachers were no longer alllowed to hit students! which was a great relief to all the students!
