Read THIS blog post by a teacher. I mean actually read it. Take it in. Think about it. And then, write about it. What do you think about it? What is the teacher trying to say? In your own words explain what "the main event" is.


I think the teacher is absolutely right in saying that school prepares us for adversity in life.  I find it interesting to see how much he cares about his students.  I learned that teachers care a lot about students, much more than just the academic surface of it.  The teacher is trying to say that life is challenging, but that doesn't mean you can just give up when the going gets tough.  School prepares you for toughness in life to help you fight your way through it.  You can't just give up and lie down, you have to stand up and fight through the hardships.  The "main event" is never giving up.  It is a lesson that demonstrates how resilient people are.  Everybody has a shell, how thick is your shell?
