Ok, I am starting a list of things that leak. Feel free to add your own. I am not including body parts other than the brain.
- Complex instructions to kiddos spoken in the midst of asides and other students’ comments.
- Classroom lectures that last 30 minutes.
- Classroom lectures that last 20 minutes.
- Social skills instructions that are not practiced in real world situations.
- Tips for dealing with bullies that don’t include adult supervision and support.
- Phonics instruction presented by teachers who have no scope and sequence.
- Phonics instruction presented by teachers who never learned phonics skills.
- Ditto #6 and #7 for phonological instruction.
- My brain after less than 8 hours of sleep.
- My words after a strong cup of tea.
- Dishwashers.

Even this dehumidifier leaks- but into the sink, not the subfloor, like our dishwasher.
