Homeschoolers’ fight against common core is misguided. What test to teach to? March 13, 2014. Many devoted teachers love their students and daily make the best — and then some — of an otherwise bad situation. Let’s thank and honor those teachers, bless them, but please let’s do it without glorifying the bad situation. And what might a bad situation be? Https:/ thedavenportblog.wordpress.com/.

Newer posts →. Don’t wait your turn. March 8, 2013. This is a great article. By somebody named Mandy in xoJane. Here, where Mandy quotes Seth Godin, I paused. Seth says:. 8220;Our cultural instinct is to wait to get picked. To seek out the permission, authority and safety that comes from a publisher or talk show host or even a blogger saying, ‘I pick you.’. Once you reject that impulse and realize that no one is going to select you … then you can actually get to work.”. For our entire childhood! 8220;But...

What test to teach to? June 29, 2014. One can’t fault the teachers since they’re being evaluated in part on how well their students score on these tests. But could there be clearer evidence that the point of schooling is to take tests? That test preparation, more than anything else — creativity, social skills, general knowledge, critical thinking, ethics — is what drives lesson plans?

The Blog of Brenna McBroom. 10 Things I Learned During My First Year of Self-Employment. March 20, 2013. Since that job ended, and discounting a couple of short term jobs working with unschoolers, I’ve been self-employed making and selling pottery for a full year. That was my goal when I moved to Asheville- to make a living by being a potter. But I honestly didn’t think it would happen so quickly. Looking back over the past year, I realized that I’ve learned several things. 4 I love selling. 6 I got lucky.

Public versus obligatory | the davenport
https://thedavenportblog.wordpress.com/2013/02/09/public-versus-obligatory
You can try again. Standardized testing as logical outcome →. February 9, 2013. I strongly support public education. I am opposed to obligatory education. I believe that a system (or systems) of education — schools, teachers, academic classes, performance art classes, art studios, mentors, tutors, project-based activities, book clubs, gymnasiums, swimming lessons, science labs, nature walks, environmental projects, cooking classes — should be paid for by all and freely available to all.

Otse meie silmade all. Tal on muidugi õigus. 8220; tuleb kõigepealt ja õige pea järgneb „Aga kuidas nad LUGEMA õpivad? MITTE ÜHTEGI. 80% USA majapidamistest ei osta või ei loe raama...
