Mas Skool stuf
Smacking posted about how terrible it is that a huge part of the purpose of school is to create mindless consumers. And she is looking at changing how she teaches. I think that's great! I've been directed to read A Kohn and his stuff on rewards as counterproductive.
I haven't gotten much feedback from other parents but what I've gotten is amazing. Generally we feel powerless and I think my growing desire to become CHAMISH (Chicano Amish) is coming from this hope to break free from as much of the crap as I possibly can. I figure its better to do that than resign myself to being a "good citizen."
Amor y Rebeldia!
