Do you wonder why other countries are kicking our butts when it comes to education? Perhaps this will help. I lifted this verbatim from a freecycle site that I read all of the time. This is one more reason I am proud to send my children to private school.
Hello all:
I am cleaning out my classroom and have some pretty good stuff to give away if you are a primary school teacher, a homeschool parent or maybe just someone with seriously left-leaning tendencies (like me!). Here's what I've got:
Heifer Project: storybook, VHS (!), cd-rom and other curricular support materials for their "Read to Feed" program
Teaching Tolerance: four copies of the book "Starting Small," a songbook, some curriculum material (including another VHS - yes, these have been on my shelf a long time)
Amnesty: a banner, some postcards and pamphlets, a copy of the activist toolkit and other assorted stuff - this one makes me really sad because we used to have an AI group at my school, but there just wasn't enough interest to continue - but you could pick up the banner (literally and figuratively)!
Please respond to this msg or TEXT me at 348-XXXX
I hope that someone can make use of these materials. They are in great shape and promote great causes.
Catherine
Ask your child's teachers about their beliefs. Find out what they are teaching your children besides the basics. You'll thank me later.
