Congrats to Matt.  Matt's 6th grade class was an "Observation" class for my Educational :|
Psychology course with Dr. Kaspar back in 1979 or so.  We clocked a few hours in there with them.  We had to write a detailed paper on selected students in that class.  Had to go to their school music programs and even spend an evening getting to know their parents at their house.  My group did not get Matt to focus on but I would bet some other group did.
