This is why I love English and Socials

As we're getting into the guts of our courses I'm so impressed with the work you all are doing. It's a joy to be teaching and learning with you, and I am reminded that I could never be a Math teacher :)

Test Your Brain

Hi ladies and gents, for any of you who were curious about your brain and various abilities the brain science link has been remedied. It connects you to the Cambridge Brain Science Tests page, and for those of you wondering, it's the spatial reasoning category where I have the capacity of a monkey :)

Garden of Your Mind

Remember what we're here for:

I know this is a bit creepy, and yet hilarious, but Mr. Rogers (even remixed) sings it true. Lets Grow Your Mind! Be Creative! Be Curious!
