I create units of study for my students and often see my work in the hands of students who I haven't taught. The best was when my son brought my work home as a assignment. I assisted him using my standards for assessment and he didn't receive a satisfactory grade. i had to chuckle. <br /> Rest easy that many of us admire and can't wait to spend our hard earned dollars to replicate the musings from your creative mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1563433147316949363.post-21427871445996437282012-02-16T10:47:59.981-06:002012-02-16T10:47:59.981-06:00I'm so sorry this happened to you.
