| As for the speech last night, the only part I caught was the part about learning style differences, and the reason that set me off was more to do with all this clap trap one constantly gets from the teacher organizations. Our family's experience comes in the area of math education and the crazy NCTM. I have had countless battles with incompetent math teachers devoted to calculators and who were convinced that girls learned math "differently". This craziness resulted in more frustation in both my daughters, well, it just infuriated me no end when Wright jumped on that band wagon. The stuff about the presidents and their speech patterns I missed. |
