>>>And the school we taught in decided they didn’t like him!<<<

LOL That’s the problem with old grandfather misfit geezers - lots of people don’t like them... They don’t play the shmooze (sp)game very well. So we just tinker and try different things out of curiosity - toss out the failures and revel in the successes...

>>>Why didn’t I just ping you directly, DW ;)<<<

Cuz when you share openly, I too get a chance to learn from others... ;8-)

That was it - he didn't play their game. He was just an excellent teacher, but expected the kids to actually participate in their own education. The administration thought overwise. (I left after one semester, in disgust.)

LOVE the spectacle smiley! I have 'em myself. Can't find my way out of bed without 'em actually!
