Thank you, our dear friend Adib Ali, for sharing so many great materials with us worldwide. I've been enjoying all of them and sharing them with my students by email. They've enjoyed learning about so much vocabulary in English. And yes, Adib, as a non-native speaker of English, I do thank you for your great help. Have you, all yours, and everyone everywhere a joyful and pleasant week. Have you and everyone everywhere a very fine day.:)

How did we do it? Why not separate children according to their abilities.....and teach according to the pace they can go at.. but no PARENTS don't want their children to be embarrassed; so bundle all of them in one class and just teach; they will catch on. Don't we want our children to be rounded.... Children should understand that learning takes a lot of effort and practice...I personally loves exam.. it tells the teacher and us as parents where the children are at and what area needs more attention.... special education should be a totally different system;teachers should be aware of the uniqueness of each child and teach them according to their abilities. Testing for those children should be different but they should be tested to see their progress. We need to stop underestimate the abilities of our children; but try more to understand the child and understand how each child grasp information and figure out how this information should be passed on to this child so it wil be effective. Nothing is wrong with testing....most of our lives we have to pass one test or another.
