We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.
If it is a matter of the right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. 4.Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? 5.
