Ties in quite well. In this case its positive reinforcement. But hell, if it works and if it gives students motivation, then by all means do it. If anyone expects kids to suddenly "enjoy learning" or whatever, well, sorry to say it, but dont hold your breath. Dont get me wrong, there are many interesting things you can learn in a day, but gettin that icing on the cake never hurts = ]Alyciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08904455863007478651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20882334.post-82444005659038101312009-03-05T22:29:00.000-08:002009-03-05T22:29:00.000-08:00barry I disagre I find it easy to get by on looks ...barry I disagre I find it easy to get by on looks alone. if I did anything more than that I would be super natural.scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03218328960423985063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20882334.post-14154999996860440722009-03-05T22:14:00.000-08:002009-03-05T22:14:00.000-08:00Ambition Smishion (or something like that)Morals.....Ambition Smishion (or something like that)Morals...Character....Whatever.
