Pete Seeger dies in New York aged 94


Seems like I have been singing Pete Seeger tunes all my life, both knowingly and as covers by other well known artists.

As a tribute here is a selection ….

Seeger also had a hit with the popular song, Little Boxes, although he did not write it.

So Pete is gone from this world but not from our memories.

I think this video is a fitting tribute…..

There’s Nothing Left To Say


I’m not having a pop at One Direction.

As far as I know, I have never heard a One Direction track and have never seen them perform on TV, so I really have no view on them as a band. I do have a general aversion to the “boy band” phenomenon and the screaming fanatics that follow them.

All that aside, this video was too good not to share.

Enjoy

Nothing Changes


I received the following by e-mail. I just had to share with you all.

The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance.

 So, evidently we’ve learnt bugger all over the past 2,069 years!

Please share to show my pupils how far a photo can go (even if you don’t want it to!)


pushing it along

Not about everything

Sharing this, because it seems an interesting lesson.

I am teaching E-safety to my pupils at the moment and wanted to try a little experiment. Please share this photo and see how far it gets, I want to show my students how easily photos etc can go viral, even when you may not want them to. Share it and see how far it goes!
