Trying to be a little less radical...
I have students who will do great in the world if they just survive school first. Their skills just don't go along with being in a classroom. Then again, I have some whose parents I think should save their tuition money so they can pay for bail later. Radical is good............................. says she who lives far away and doesn't have to sit in your principal's office.

we drew alot, held 20 questions type of contests with the class divided in half, and listened to music. anybody could bring their favourite music. often our teacher told us all kinds of stories. sometimes from his own experience, or about the world, and some he just made up. we never had homework, and hardly any exams. if the weather was nice, we often went outside. this went on from 3rd to 6th grade, and the result was zero dicipline problems in junior high or high school, unlike all the other classes. and I think everyone in our class had even better success afterwards, compared to others who always had loads of homework.
there was a parental meeting once, where someone's mom asked our teacher if it was really true that their son never had any homework, because their other son had loads every day. he answered: "I believe that a 6th grader doesn't have to know anything yet, besides that a pike is a fish and horse eats oat."
oh yeah, and I was constantly in remedial teaching, when they thought I had problems with speech because I had brazilian accent. 😀 my r's and l's were way too soft for finnish.
Originally posted by PalynkaI'm finnish, mas morei no rio de janeiro como criança, na ipanema. I came back to finland when I had to start school. I don't have accent anymore, and I can't really speak portuguese that well anymore. pronunciation still comes without an accent though.
Are you Brazilian or do you have Brazilian ascent?
