Small children are able to find and correct their mistakes for themselves.
However, what we must remember about this ability of children to become
aware of mistakes, to find and correct them, is that it takes time to work,
and that under pressure and anxiety it does not work at all.
But at school we almost never give it the time.
(ここからが訳せません)
When a child at school makes mistake, say, in reading aloud,
he gets an instant signal from the environment.
Perhaps some of the other children in the class will make a face,
or wave their hand in the air - anything to show the teacher
that they know more than the unfortunate reader.
Perhaps the teacher herself will correct the mistake, or will say,
"Are you sure?"
