69. Needs another

KnR!

Great thread, teacher gal!

I see the horrible stress NCLB is putting on my grandson, 7yo, and my nephews, ages 11 and 13, and it makes me feel sick. Terra Nova next week. I've checked out the sample they sent home for "practice"; what a nightmare for a first grader! Geometry, story problems... Many things I would never imagine as being normal for a first grader.

The kids I know hate all the study for the test crap and feel they are learning very little. :(

I haven't spoken to many teachers that like it either.

:hi:
