My favorite elementary school memory...
The memory of my elementary school days is a teacher in charge at the age of a fifth grader and the sixth grader. The teacher's name is "Ishibashi sensei". He looks young in same age with my father who was a teacher with the passion very much.
He liked a certain words very much. It was "Kihon ha issyoukenmei"."The basics do their best". When it expresses it in English, will it be such a feeling?Easily say the meaning of these words..."do it in everything with every effort".The teacher valued these words very much. He put the big paper which these words were written on a blackboard. These words are his mottoes.
Our class had to do 30 times of squats, ten times of push-ups and ran in three laps of grounds by all means before leaving school. This was his guidance, too.
Such he be liked from our all students, and it was respected.He devotes himself to even whom for a student, and "did it in everything with every effort".

We did a class reunion sometimes after having graduated from an elementary school, I was surprised that he remembered the name of all the students. He is a really splendid teacher.

I am still proud of him.
