Dont know about science lessons but I always remember as an impressionable youth in the early sixties our Geograrhy teacher taught us the difference between stalagmites and stalagtites.Tites come down.A peice of advice I have always remembered. It's true, too.

Seem like you were only half listening, Keith.
The quote I remember is 'Tights down - mites up!'
Nik,
My science teacher, who also taught us advanced maths, kept our interest with home made models to demonstrate the subject of the lesson. For homework, he also challenged us to make a different model, using readily available household materials, to illustrate the same point. The pupil who made the best model 'won' the right to miss a homework with full marks awarded.

Glad you like it Nik. You've no need to pinch it, it's freely given. I just hope it works. Let me know how you get on, please.
I also had an English teacher at junior school who had a great way of teaching us to spell. So if you know any Junior School English teachers who might be interested ......
PS : Mine's a 'dragon'.

I have loads of cool pics and always have a Youtube window open. Maybe you should change schools.
I think I saw you today anyway - or at least I saw a young man in a Guiseley tracksuit with the initials AB on it. So there could be someone out there who's stolen your identity.

Oh right.
The guy with your initials was in the terrace by the bar. You should probably have a chat about getting them back.
