Summary

In 1955, the author set out on a 32-year career in teaching. Although trained as a primary school specialist, eight years were spent teaching in secondary schools coupled with a short time assisting on field trips with overseas university students. This chapter is a piecing together the fragments of memories about how the natural world was incorporated into the lessons planned and taught across those decades.
