These are the people that have me shaking my head when they then are so opinionated about the curricula though.
- glowingly 4y agoThat's what hurts. The worst tyrants (classically) believe they are doing the right thing. For who(m)? That's another question.
- jcims 4y agoSometimes you just get outliers. For example, there were some methods taught to my kids in elementary school as part of an emerging common core math curriculum that I disagreed with quite a bit. I didn't take it to the school though because they were stuck in the middle of a state mandate and pissed off parents. I just helped my kids differentiate some of the more fundamental methods from helps/shortcuts (like sections on estimation).
