DO YOU WANT TO MAKE A VISUAL AID?
•\\c shall be missing the greatest chance we ever had of making education a living thing unless we take the fullest advantage of the new medium o\' visual aids.' From a statement made at a recent meeting in London called by the National Committee for Visual Aids and the Educational Foundation for Visual Aids.
There's a lovely new pie in the sky bo\s. A lovelj new pie in the sky, If you can't pull a plum out first time boys, Don't despair at having a try.
True, the contents are rather obscure boys, But don't let that worry your head. It won't be the last pie in the sky boys, Whatever the critics have said.
It was stirred up with very great care boys, When the world and his wife were abed. Now it's hot and ready to serve boys To the visually underfed.
All thanks to a committee or two boys Planning away in a room ; We now have a solid foundation boys For the start of a wonderful boom.
So here's to the best of both worlds boys, The future is rosy pink. We've nothing to lOse but ourselves boys, For we've not had much time to think.
For the pie is as high as the skies boys And there's room for us all inside. And so long as you don't lift the lid boys You won't know who's taking the ride.
To found a committee is one thing boys To commit a foundation's worse. So don't get rash ideas in your heads boys About stinging the public purse.
And to think it has all been prepared ho\s. In the name of the kids at school Won't it give you a great big thrill boys, I >> make a new teaching tool?
Hut you've got to remember its name boys, Take care not to call it a spade. It's dod's gift to this generation boys, I ho wonderful \ isual aid.
