"think different"
STILL not something the school system actually embraces

and the littlest students are the ones that lose their belief in themselves, that they CAN finish

but it is better than the 60's, and there are some teachers of learning disabled kids that are gifted, persistent and innovative (my heroes!)
or shd i say that the persistent survivors of the school system,who find a way to use their gifts, despite the school system- the students- are the heroes!

the best ld teachers i've seen are "differently abled", not using only the one or two types of intelligence that the school system focuses on...

very interested in responses, thanks for input

mimi

p.s. shall i throw a little fuel on this topic?
school is still NOT for little boys
sit and listen,comply , be quiet, wait
NOT natural skills or to the taste of the immature male
