@darynsimon Me: That’s a really great question, we’ll come back to that in a while. Narrator: Little did the class know, they were never coming back to that....

@darynsimon I have a particular student who makes it personal mission to undertake home research on anything we study (no prompting). Shares it next lesson. Absolute diamond.

@darynsimon I do that when I'm asked to tie a shoelace. "I'll help you this time, but your homework this weekend is to learn how to tie them yourself."
