Actually, Charlie always did hear his teacher and responded intelligently. At least as intelligently as a cartoon kid could. The genius of Schultz was he realized, what the teacher actually said was not relevant to his audience for either the humor or understanding of the story. Perhaps that is something you in your self appointed role of "teacher" here should consider.
