Education Poll

[author_by_night]

Just a poll based on an article I saw a while ago, where schools were banning kids from sending invitations in class, and another one where kids were banned from playing tag. It made me think.

There is no "right answer". I will give my opinion, but later. And if you think you know my opinion, don't base your answer on that.

Please comment! :)

On an OT note, fish update: I renamed her "Luna." :)

Mr. Dennis is clearly being lazy. Teachers can easily resort and reorgnize students into teams so that no one particular students gets left out: Have kids line up according to birthdate and split them down the middle, have children count off by twos, sort children alphabetically (by last name or by first name) and split them down the middle, etc.

Regarding Mrs. Gordon - kids do need to learn to suck it up and work together. She, like Mr. Dennis, can group students herself any number of ways. This means sometimes kids will get to work with their friends and sometimes they won't.
