Thus ended a most enjoyable and enlightening lesson, for my class and for me. As a teacher who carefully plans all of his formal lessons, I delight in the impromptu reading of Times articles with my students on topics we never would have covered had The Times not given us the occasion to. On such occasions, we learn together, as we did when Science Times featured the dynamics of roller coasters and the physics of ocean waves. As unplanned as the cloning lesson was until that morning's Times appeared, it was indeed a true lesson, and a stimulating one for my students and me. The Times provided the text, I provided the guidance through it, and my students' interest sustained the discussion.
