Do you know that the history of English has started since the 5th century? In fact, Shakespeare plays and poems of which we thought Old English - are actually modern texts. This blog was created to support the English online learning among students in my English class.

A Story of a Teacher Who Lowered His Height
Education starts with seeing things from a child's eye level. This is a Story of a Teacher who Lowered his Height..
A gentleman was approaching the art at the Smithmonium Museum in Washington DC. As he approached a painting, he would kneel down and look up at it. People ask him why he was looking at the painting with his knees. He replied, "I am an elementary school teacher and will bring my students here tomorrow. And i was just wondered how they would enjoy the paintings from down here. I am trying to appreciate these paintings at the children's eye level."
