I just got an email reply back from my son’s first grade teacher:
“Yes, first grade is planning on watching this. We will tie it into our Civics unit for Social Studies, in which we are learning about being responsible.”
Well, I am debating on whether to yank my son out for that day or to ask for permission to sit in class. If my request is denied, I will pull him out for that day anyway.
My daughter’s first grade teacher hadn’t even heard about it. Obviously not a news junkie. :)
Still waiting for responses from my fifth grader’s teacher, the elementary principal, the middle school, and the high school. I’m going to start going ballistic in the morning.
(I actually think my emails to the elementary teachers were probably eaten by their spam filter. It’s happened before. )
