How interesting that I came upon your site if there are approximately 20 years of not speaking to you. My name is Peter Sperling and we work together at Rhodes middle school in Philadelphia in the Gratz Connection with Linda Gotlieb 100 years ago.
What’s even more interesting is the first thing I listen to is that thing that I preach to everyone now which are the four levels of time accordingly.
When we first met I’m sure that I was unconsciously unskilled and now that I feel that I am unconsciously skilled, what I forgot is that this is a continuum not a straight line. I have felt very comfortable for years. Time to go back into the continuum.
