Spelling in school…

After the grade-school class comes back inside, the teacher asks Alice, “What did you do at recess?” Alice says, “I played in the sandbox.” “That’s nice,” the teacher says. “If you can go to the blackboard and write ’sand’ correctly, I’ll give you a fresh-baked cookie.” Alice does, and she gets a cookie.

Then the teacher asks Billy what he did at recess. Billy says, “I played in the sandbox with Alice.” The teacher says, “Good. If you can write ‘box’ on the blackboard, I’ll give you a fresh- baked cookie.” Billy writes the word, and he gets a cookie.

The teacher then asks Mustafa Abdul what he did at recess.
“I tried to play with Alice and Billy,” Mustafa answers, “but they threw rocks at me.”

“They threw rocks at you? That sounds like blatant racial discrimination!” the teacher says. “If you can go to the blackboard and write ‘blatant racial discrimination’, I’ll give you a fresh-baked cookie.”
