I'll try to be tame! Around here teachers of THREE YEAR OLDS are being told they should stand in front of a blackboard and teach them like they are high schoolers. Marilyn used to teach lower elementary and pre school she talks to these teachers and they are frustrated as all get out with what the PHD's in high places are telling them to do to teach our young people. Little kids with minds that have yet to develop are being drilled like they are in high school!!!!! The kids WILL burn out and drop out. Only age will develop our young people's minds, they can't be rushed we cannot change the biological development of their minds by ramming huge amounts of information down their throats. The PHD's look at the VERY FEW three year olds who are able to read the cerial box and they expect every child to do that. What they don't realize is these kids who can read at three years old can't COMPREHEND what they are reading. The PHD's look at countries that have been doing this and their supposed high achievement. What they don't look at is a higher rate of suicides among their young people. We are headed for an educational disaster with a nation of people who have given up on learning at a young age and they will never have the desire again once they lose it. We have many teachers who can't wait till their IPERS is maxed so they can retire. The teachers know what's right, not the ones in the ivory towers. Every Child Left Behind is a very good name for it.
