Layers of fun! It's a play on homophones (different spellings and meanings - same sound) and a mnemonic rule of thumb for English spelling that's wrong over 28% of the time.
I before E is one of those silly things teachers repeat (authoritarianism) that if they thought about, they'd stop repeating.

Heroic educators! V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University - Ukraine

I remember packages of cookies, heads of cauliflower, meat in butcher paper.... toys... food furniture... all purchased and packaged without plastic. We can do this. We did it before.
(Why do manufacturers have to be legislated to do the right thing?)

The characteristics of huge cohorts. Which are you? Does it ring true for you and your peers?
What's true for all of us is school hasn't changed in approach or content regardless of the times or needs of learners.

Facilitated learning is leading the world in academic results and happiness in life.

We lost it before the media got us. Look at the Jimmy Jones frenzy in the States, Gaza and elsewhere. Horrors we thought we'd never see again.
The intention in industrial education was to take away the ability to think from the masses. Super success. What can we do about it now?

AN exists because we can't pronounce two vowel sounds consecutively, and all internal words start with consonant sounds. 'An egg' is pronounced /a_negg/, an ape /a_nape/, an ipad /a_nipad/ ...
Preceding a noun with an A or an AN doesn't have anything to do with spelling. A before consonants and AN before vowels right? Not true.
Which would you use before:
__ uniform
__ one
__ European
__ M or N or S...
__ x-ray
__ honor
__ unit
It's a sound thing. The first sound in uniform is Y, in one is W, in European is Y, in Em, En, Es and Ex are E's. The h in honor is silent. The first sound in unit is Y.
It's about the physically easiest way to speak, not spelling or word breaks. Learners love to know this stull.

For those of us who haven't had our ears bitten off, Happy Easter is pronounced Happe_Yeaster.
has nothing to do with English .
In speaking, once a phrase has started all subsequent words begin with consonant sounds. Always. Regardless of spelling or word breaks.
love it when you give them a heads up about this phenomenon.
4 days ago I posted on why the 'Cross I'd Bear' and the 'Cross-Eyed bear' sound exactly the same.
