Summary: David, a student in elementary school, is always misbehaving in the classroom. His teacher always yells for him to behave, and tells him when he is wrong. One day, David draws all over his school desk, and his teacher just had it with him, and made him stay after and wash all the desks. After he had finished, his teacher praised him for doing such a great job, and David got to go home. This teaches children the unacceptable acts performed in the classroom setting, but when they obey, they will get praised.
