- Zilkif, he's asking your name.
- Zilkif.
There you go.
Never mind. Okay.
Go back to your place.
Now what are we going
to do, kids? Let's start today...
...by making our classroom rules.
I don't want you to
speak Kurdish in classroom.
Why not? Because all our
lessons are in Turkish.
If you speak Kurdish,
I won't understand you.
Okay?
So, let's not speak Kurdish in class.
Let's try to speak in Turkish.
Because you will stay
eight years at school...
...and all lessons will be in Turkish.
So, please don't speak in Kurdish
at the classroom, okay?
It's really exhausting, mum.
Yes, they showed up.
Not all of them but
more than half of them came.
It's hard dealing with
all the kids at once.
The first-year students
came today.
They can't speak Turkish.
Whenever I say something
it's like I'm wasting my time.
They don't understand a word.
How am I supposed to teach them?
They just stare at me.
They just sit there staring and
they don't understand a thing.
Damn it! The line's gone dead.
Is this your first day?
No, is this the first time
you're coming to school?
- Are you a first-year student, too?
- Canan.
Okay, Canan. Sit down.
Nedret, look after her too.
Teacher, I need a pencil sharpener...
...a rubber.
- What's up now?
- She wants to sharpen her pencil.
- You want to sharpen your pencil?
Okay, go on.
Sharpen your pencil.
- Sharpener.
- A pencil sharpener. Here.
Leave your notebook there.
Do it over the rubbish bin.
The rubbish bin. It's over there.
Leave you notebook
and go to the bin.
Go to the bin.
Go on. Canan.
Come with me. Look, you have to
sharpen it over the bin, okay?
Go on then.
Can't you do?
Give it to me. I'll do it.
- I need to pee.
- I didn't hear. Shout.
- Say it again.
- I need to pee.
- You should say "Can I go to the toilet"?
- Can I go too-let?
- Toilet. - Too-let?
- Okay, you can go.
Devran, come here.
Here. Hold this.
There.
What's this? Others, be quiet.
What's this?
- What's this? - A horse.
- What's this? - A cow.
- Quiet! What's this?
- A cow.
No, it's not a cow.
What's this?
A bear.
- A bear.
- A bear!
Okay, off you go.
Zlkf, take off your bag.
Take it off.
Okay.
Come here.
What's this?
Be quiet!

- What's this?
- What's this?
- A butterfly.
In Turkish?
- What is this?
- Can I go to the toilet?
What? No, you can't.
What's this? A bee.
- A bee. - A bee.
- A bee. - Off you go.
What is this?
- Vehip, what's this? - What?
- What is this?
- An ear.
- It's not an ear.
- This is your ear.
- What is this? This is your ear, isn't it?
This is your ear.
What is this?
Zlkf, what's this?
What's this?
Cover your mouth!
