Hot off the presses: the November Teachers.Net Gazette....

    Re: I kid you not..
    Posted by Reminds me of a "whole staff activity" of a couple years ago on 4/09/09

    We were supposed to do some kind of similar multi-intelligence
    vocabulary exercise with the students every day, all at 10 AM or
    some such thing. I don't remember all the details, but yep, we
    were supposed to have the kids draw a picture for each new
    vocabulary word and so forth.

    It fell through pretty quickly, because the kids were confused,
    the teachers were annoyed, and whoever's bright idea it was got
    embarrassed wandering from room to room making sure every teacher
    was in compliance.

    Good luck with all those student drawings of explicit
    inappropriate encounters, by the way.
