Over Due, Teach?

Yes, it has been a while. A quick note about the interwebs: the other day I was clicking around some sites, mostly education blogs that linked to other education blogs or articles, and I read a really interesting post. Something a student said to me today reminded me of what I had read. Do you think I can find that post again? I can't even find which blog it was on. If it had been a book I'd have had it in a snap. Perhaps I am just a digital doofus. Anyway, to the sentences. As always, these are from actual student papers and my comments are in ( ).

Back to the googles for me.
