In a small open courtyard, outside a school building, there were flowers here and there. In the sunshine, a  36  was lying on the grass, reading a book with  37  concentration. Near her, another child was carefully watering the flowers, while a third was  38 with his back against a tree and had a  39  on his knees. He appeared to be drawing or writing something on it. He was _40  in his task, like the first child.
_41  the building, there were pleasant carpeted areas. Many children were busy with their tasks in a variety of  42  , while teachers wandered among them, talking to them,  43  them, and encouraging their efforts.
_44  I watched this scene on a morning in May years ago, it  45  to me that a visitor here would  46  have thought be had entered a formal school. He would have been even more  47  if he had been told that the children he was  48 came from different kinds of academic levels.

And if every child could learn in the same way as the children in the school I visited, they would develop better.
