“As I am about to do so again, I thought you would like to know that I have used material from all four of the units of study I did with you last year, in my work many times (as in, actually opened folders and got stuff out to use, not just found intangibly useful…which is true as well!). Just so you know (I like to hear that our students find things useful and thought you might as well).” – Hannah
