Reply To: Steven’s Most Memorable Moment – Discussion

[Lisa Hudson]

Unlike Steven, I loved competing in Around the World as an elementary student because I knew my math facts and I rarely lost a round of the game. This was in the early 1960’s. As a teacher, I am horrified at the thought of creating stress for my students from a copetitive situation. I was always comfortable in my math classes until my last year of high school when I was in my final semester and I really didn’t understand the concepts that we were learning nor the uses for the elementary analysis that I was studying.
