Golly gosh it's already a warm start to the day as I type up this blog early on Tuesday morning having just about cracked the failure to get to sleep thing by leaving all the electrics downstairs overnight often charging up.
Everybody learns differently some more chalk and talk, others by actually doing the task although as many of recall school seldom showed any inclination to adjust teaching methods to suit what is known about learning preferring to do things as its always been done.
Chalk and talk with copius note taking just never works with me really not least I can't remember more than a few words at time and am rubbish at spelling not least for being dyslexic.
The odd time I took part in any kind of a school recreation with actual lessons, having to dress in uniform and that just undelined to me what was wrong about the education I had as it just wasn't the case they took any consideration of my innate limitations and preferred to see as naughty inattentive boy who need a sharp reminder rather than saving anything like that to pure laziness or bad manners.
Sometimes you wonder if those who run things have really moved on some forty or so years in our understanding of peoples disabilities?
