Yeah, our Kindergarten teacher was actually a 3rd grade teacher who had never taught Kindergarten before. She would punish this one kid by putting him in a box, seriously.
Dude, I would have loved that in kindergarten. I would have tried to get in trouble all the time.

Really? I thought that was done away with more than a century ago.
My naturally left-handed grandmother was made to write right-handed, but I think it was her parents rather than her teachers who enforced it. She never exactly got good at it.
Wow, people sure were superstitious about such things. Assuming thats why, seeing as how left handed people were considered an ill omen in the Middle Ages (and quite a bit afterward too). I'm not quite sure what the practicalities are of teaching left handed people to write with their right hand. Its better just to leave them to write how their comfortable, it seems like a lot of trouble for such a trivial thing. My dad is left handed so he always gets the right side of the couch (which happens to be the most comfortable side :-P ).

Heh, I remember in third grade they separated me from the rest of the class by putting me in a different desk from everyone else (the kind with the sort of wire-frame, rather than the table like ones, basically like the ones in high school). I'd probably joke about being in the box, it would be kinda fun.

When I was in kindergarten I was put in an iron maiden because I coughed.
