| Kids are like sand castles. If left alone, they'd go back to being mounds of sand. So, I train, tickle, tease, torment, torture. terrorize, throw temper tantrums, reduce them to tears and tear them to shreds, all in the name of teaching. |

| technology in the classroom: I'm totally old school. Voice, chalkboard, & paper. The students get enough digital stimulation elsewhere & I'm supposed to be teaching conversation. The kids respond. Overseers let me do it my way because I get results. |
I am glad someone said this. I am tired of technology being touted as the savior of teaching. Old school is the best way to go though I do use power point and a computer/projector to cast my material large enough for all the students to see what is on the screen. |
