Hello! First off, good luck tomorrow, folks! I want to thank Doron for 
posting the fantastic film about Mr. Kanamori in Japan. It was extremely 
moving. His is a classroom for LIFE, not for pouring facts into fourth grade 
"brains." I found it so poignant. As with all the remarkable films based on 
the lives of real teachers, we see in this film a man with uncompromising 
principles, yet at the same time flexible when the need arises. Primarily 
though, we see a teacher with tremendous love and affection for his pupils.

If figuring out last minute Tziyunim Shanatiim (thanks for all the folks who 
stressed the real meaning of the so-called "magen" grade,) do yourselves a 
favor and take the time to watch all 5 parts of this beautiful film. I wish 
someone could get it translated into Hebrew. There's a great deal about 
Education to be learned from this story.
