Our version of that lesson was a Settler’s of Catan rendition for an economy lesson in 4th grade

That was a very sweet moment between the two

I actually had that same lesson in elementary school, though they did give everyone food. I was in the group that had to sit on the floor in the corner...

 

[Roodypatooti]

Huh, kinda wish I'd gotten a lesson like that in school.
Surprising that happened in a school for rich kids in the first place. You'd think the parents might complain about teaching their children to empathize with "the lower classes".

I guess it makes sense that if the ogres are loaded, so are the exorcists who “manage” them.
I just hope we don’t have some crazy underground organization/nation conspiracy involved later (cause where there is power there is money and vice versa). This series doesn’t need that.

Oh so they were childhood/highschool sweethearts? Yeah that's gonna be painful when responsibilities comes knocking at them... I wonder if that's why Tsukasa started avoiding her

Being rich is truly tough business when those below heavily envy you for gifted circumstances...

I wouldnt know from experience, but it aint hard to guess what'd be like.

Story has been getting grounded huh? Not that I hate it though, its been good 😅

Teacher is retarded.
There's no way to move between social classes in her example (very frequent).
While I won't say social disparities do nothing (being broke and going to some inner city school will definitely give you worse outcomes than a quality private school), innate ability also plays a huge factor.
We're not the tabula rasa. Over generations the wax hardens, and clear grooves, bumps, and scratches form. You can deepen them, and you can make new shallow ones, but what's originally on it can still be seen and felt.

That's the key words "over generations" and "innate ability". To move to better standing it takes several generation means what the class show is true cause they are in one generation they can't move social class. Abilities are based on luck like the lottery draw for cookies and where they sit, it's like that story from the bible about talents. Thus the teacher is not retarded as you say, in fact you just reinforced that her teaching is valuable and hit some truths

I have a family member who used to do admin for a school for rich kids – they had a tale about exactly that. A first-year teacher gave a lesson like the above, and within the week complaints were coming in.

My favorite was the parents upset that their child was in the "poor" group. How dare their baby be made to sit on the floor!

I guess you could also see it in a way that because you have all the biscuits, you gotta ensure you have the knowledge, wisdom, and power to not get the people who don’t get biscuits envy your wealth.

I mean this IS an elite school, they don’t want the children to be looked down on and reflect poorly their status and image, because THAT is what these Elites care about more, they already have all the money they need
Or tldr: Prove your worth with respect to your wealth

That's certainly a lesson worth teaching rich brats. If he's the only one who actually learned anything from it I'd still say that lesson went well. Thanks for translating.

We did a similar thing in 6th grade. We did a "victorian" age roleplay in a combined history, maths, and civics class. The whole class was divided into families from different aspects of society and then we had to handle the family budget and negotiate between workers and capitalists.

It's kind of a bittersweet chapter but I chuckled about that, "wrecking the beans" that little Aju said.😂
