Thanks @hanshotfirst What I didn't mention is that I am also left-handed and received my elementary education in a church controlled school back in the day in Ireland when this was considered "a mark of Satan". I kid you not. Guess I have always been a rebel because guess what? I am still left-handed despite best efforts to make me otherwsie.
Like you, never believed I would someday become a teacher myself.
Thanks for your comment btw.
Lastly, I now have more letters after my name than in it (over 50 at the last count). Not so much a boast, but to say to anyone struggling out there; if I can do it, so can you. Period!
Loved your graphics. I am very fond of If you judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree...

Wow. The left handed analogy is great. Now we look at that practice and think "how insane". I hope in my lifetime we think that way about a lot of practices that need to be done away with.
