what about the other subjects?
CC - the other subjects? I have seen English papers, Middle School. They are tripe. One side has some STUPID ‘story’ in the very worst sense of the word. They are poorly written, the kind you’d find in some 3rd-rate kids’ magazine; they make a writer cringe for the sheer banality of language. There are maybe 12 questions on the other side - 3 answers for each night’s homework. They are on that cheap newsprint that Kindergartners scribble on - not attractive, no artwork.
As Stealth Tutor, I speak my mind every chance I get - and I always warn the parents.
I had a laugh, though, the other day. I ran into a friend - an ‘educator’ at a fancy Learning Disability school here in town - who told me, “I go around to the different schools in the area, teaching them how to implement CC.” (She doesn’t do math, tho - they are not math people at her school!). “I remember your priest!! He told me he was not interested - “Isn’t CC just Obama’s way of cramming his agenda down kids’ throats? We are not going to do it.”
She was stunned! I said, “That is why we go to that church. You will not find me disagreeing with him.” end of conversation.
