April 10, 2024) Our schools have often given up the very idea of teaching lots of stuff, and even if they try, they have no idea how to do it. Train the teachers better and then let them loose.

“My people don’t do what I ask them to, they don’t listen and they don’t come up with innovative ideas.” Leaders say it all the time, and if I had a penny for everytime I heard this, I could buy my own private island!

Here’s a real head-scratcher for you. You leave a meeting thinking, “the team has got this''. Then you go to execute, and you find out that you weren’t, in fact, on the same page.

The truth is daily trampled. I'm not joking or exaggerating. For example, phonics is necessary but schools deliver sight-words, which will damage children. Schools won't teach elementary arithmetic. Too difficult or racist. And constructivism fills the rest of the day. Kids are told to construct their own new knowledge. Good luck. So we have hopele…
