First day of school

When Antonio gets ready to go to school, Ultima sadly tells his mother and father that "he will be a man of learning".

Why do you think this makes her sad?

What a hard first day of school!

It reminds me of a story that a man I used to work with told me about being in school in the late fifties. He remembers they had to whisper in Spanish because they were physically punished if they were caught.

Do you think that Spanish speaking kids today have the same troubles?
