rarestia said “Simple math using columns to add/subtract have been replaced with this fuzzy math garbage that teaches kids how to break up numbers. It’s mumbo jumbo if you as me. I tried to teach my 9 year old cousin how to do long division, and he says to me, “That’s not how we learned to do it in school!”
I said, “Show me how you learned to do it.”
I was aghast at what they were trying to get these kids to learn.”
That’s the division junk they’re teaching to my nine year old too! I asked what they were teaching it like that for and they said they had to and it was supposed to be easier. i call BS.
I also noticed a couple of times when she got homework, it wasn’t for her, it was for me! She told this to the teacher and she laughed and said yes. It was okay, I could put evil pictures of obama;)
All in all, I really like the school. I’ve walked in after school during a meeting and saw the teachers having a meeting. holding hands and saying a prayer.
The teachers can still show their love of God.
I did keep an eye on those muslim chicks in drag go into the office after the Christmas program. In and out in a jiffy so i had nothing to worry about.
I dated an elementary school teacher a few years ago. She was VERY liberal, but she tolerated what I said. We went to church together. We spent time in Bible study together. We prayed together. She was still a liberal. She believed that the government didn’t do enough for the kids and that it was partially her responsibility to turn out the next generation of “progressive-thinking citizens.”
I laughed at her abuse of the word citizen and quoted the old saying, “An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.” We didn’t last as a couple, needless to say.
