MP says dyslexia is a "cruel fiction" invented to cover up bad teaching. Yeah? How about you get a ladder and jump up my ass, sir.

Can I get some recommendations for good tai chi or yoga DVDs/videos? I'll trade suggestions for epic cat cuteness.




Samwise, our gray tabby who came to the door and claimed us.


Gracie the new addition, being cute. Mauling imminent in 3, 2, 1...


Weejo, my parents' cat, with her ill gotten straw still in her mouth. "O HAI, why you takes mah picture?"


Gratuitous cat snuggling! They clean each other, too.

Just dropping by to say that such is also my personal cannon about John and Dean. I used some very similar methods (the wall with connecting lines) back in my school teacher days. It was really interesting because I always had to come up with ways to adjust myself to my kids, kept me on my toes, gotta say.

I've heard a lot of people say that they think John and Dean are dyslexic. *g* This pleases me.

It must be challenging to teach students. I was supposed to tutor a peer on a vocal system I had learned and I found that I COULD NOT DO IT. I couldn't remember the steps. In my brain it was a fully formed concept and I couldn't remember what the baby steps were. Kudos for being a dyslexic teacher! Hell, kudos for being a TEACHER!
