Hi Simon, Mothers are really smart, this is her way of teaching them the dangers of life. Those kidsare smart too, notice how they stay behind her. This is good training I think.
Simon I have a challenge of my own which according to Sue Watts you are the person to assist me here.
I am teaching children in a program called An Even Start. These kids missed passing the Literacy and Numeracy for the levels of: Grades 3, 5, 7, and 9.
Mostly I see them face to face however their is a group that miss out because of their isolation and it is my desire to teach them online. I could use SKYPE and a cam corder or the likes but I need it to be face to face so that we can interact with each other. This must act as a virtual classroom for it to be authentic. ACER Australian Council for Education Research provide the resources. Their concerns is validity.
I live on the Sunshine Coast and could meet up with you if you will help me. The Education Dept pay Tutors $700 to teach these kids for 12 weeks with a pre and post assessment to gain knowledge of their needs. i have the programs and staff to teach these kids. can you help me. I am set up as a Tution Centre and accredited by the National Education Authorities. Barbara Hill. By the way my email is omahill @gmail .com love to hear from you. The Tution Coordinator is keen for me to get this active.

That is a great one Simon, just love it. I guess in this case as leader you not only have to look back from time to time you also have to be a good problem solver. Steph

I'm sure someone would have picked them up, you couldn't just leave them, could you?
