I only just received this today due to my overactive email filters.

I think it is great piece of work and uses a variety of means to ensure
that
the student succeeds, and therefore learns.

It beats the pants off my son's Y7 homework - 28 science words to be fit
into paragraphs and which took the combined efforts of myself ( Bio
GCE), my
daughter (GCSE Science double this year), my son ( supposedly awake
during
the science lesson) my husband (GCE Phys/Chem) and a combined IQ of 547
to
complete.

We did it by a process of elimination but had 2 words left over that did
not
make sense in the spaces left.  Still waiting to get it marked so that
we
know right from wrong!

All my son is learning is that Science is tough and not much fun.  I'm
going
to give him your son's homework to restore his faith in the education
process.
