Our government right there.we were complacent too long and now the socialists are deeply entrenched and they're teaching kids socialism is good.
I would love to see those lesson plans, formative and summative tests, homework assignments, class participation grades, and the resulting psychoanalysis of the children who were subjected to those lesson plans to determine how much their political leanings moved, as to judge the effectiveness of those lessons.
Oh wait, the evidence doesn't exist? That's perfect. The most compelling evidence that a conspiracy theory is true is the abject lack of evidence that a conspiracy theory is true.
Lesson plans vary among schools and school districts, and to be honest may have little to do with what is going on in the rooms. More and more schools and school districts rely on homework, many can to even give a grade on it. In todays world homework may show nothing of what the child/student is really doing. As far as grades the vast majority of the time a completely arbitrary. Tests are not what they were intended for. Originally tests were used to give the teacher an idea of how well they covered the material. This can be shown by state tests. Many states were shoked when they first started testing and seen how low test result came out, this has lead to many changes in the tests. Interesting article were mentioned in the Wall Street Journal over the year.
Stated like someone who never stood in the front of the classroom before.
So what you're saying is that there is no proof that this is going on, but we should take your word for it. 👍
Maybe the teachers are secretly taking the kids into the bathrooms to show them their blue pubés?
In my district, the sixth (I think?) largest in the country, lesson plans must be submitted and both formative and summative tests issued. We also have no textbooks and very little homework.
Actually stated from someone with over 30 years in a classroom. Didn't even mention how the majority of schools that are union ask and collect money from teachers to donate to folks running for office. Shocking, yet I can only remember folks in 1 of the parties getting it.
The looking at kids pubes is a great distraction for weak logic.
Lesson plans in some places are incredibly detailed with times, curriculum, material, and what will take place for those that didn't get it. State standards may also be asked. Some have no lesson plans and others a simple list of items to be covered .
More and more places are not single text books.
Formative and summative test are like anything else. A person can teach to a test, but does it really help?

Congrats on being a teacher! It's the Lord's work, really.
Yeah I'm aware of all of the pitfalls. In the end the thing that makes good teachers is the same thing that makes good chefs, plumbers, or mailmen. They have to give a shít.
How did YOU indoctrinate your students?
Hahaha just trolling
Well a very good teacher that kids loved in high school had a life size standing Obama in her room , constantly making references to his looks and how smart he was . English teachers that have students writing papers leaning on one side or the other. A college science prof that req. students to use a book he wrote that contained quotes from the bible and he constantly referring to how science proved Jesus ( not our self proclaimed Jesus troll, sorry just had to come out} was the son of God. If we can both be serious for a minute, is it that hard for someone to sway the thinking of our youth. And yes, you are 100% correct that we all have to give a crap about what we do.
Indoctrinate my student, I hope I did. After years of teaching elem. and middle I went to h.s. and that's when a new world opened. After a couple of year I was asked to take a class that they couldn't seem to keep a teacher in. Small inner city, and something needed to be done. There was a boxing gym that focused on respect and self image as much as boxing. Ran by one of my old students that made it.Myles and I were picking kids up in the hood to take them to his gym a couple nights a week. He and another man that dealt with computers as a college prof also instructed Chess is Life ( great program for everyone) and still do. So we were taking kids there and some into chess tournaments. Many ways to indoctrinate students. Seriously hope I have.

Re: What are you snacking on
Some sort of internet popcorn my son saw on Instagram. Popcorn with cinnamon sugar, bacon, butter and bacon grease.
