I didn't realize it was a breech of blog etiquette to do so, but just a few minutes ago while reading about manners on blogs, I found out that it wasn't appropriate. I feel duly chastized, and promise not to do it again. Hope you'll accept my apologies.

Someone needs to teach students to say, "No, I don't get it." And then to form a question about what they don't understand. But too little time, too many students, and too many roles for the teacher make that almost impossible in many classrooms. So we take the "yes" just because it lets us go on to a more pressing need. Kind of sad.<BR/><BR/>Also, I hope you and the people who comment on your blog will consider going to the "Artsy Fartsy Blog" at<BR/>http://sthig.typepad.com/my_weblog/<BR/><BR/>He gives a picture and asks for people to comment on it. So far not many takers. It may be because, unlike your blog, he doesn't comment on the comments, thus there is no feedback and that's not very satisfying--still it is a place to write and that's always fun.
