I understand every day more and more why my parents were so adamant about homeschooling 😭
> "if kids aren't being taught to sound out words, then how are they being taught to read?"
Teachers tell students to just guess at the words.
When I say this, people think I mean it metaphorically, but no, I mean students are being told to literally guess at words.
Here's a teacher training video where a teacher demonstrates how she teaches a class of kindergarteners to "read" a word that THEY CAN'T SEE
The teacher refers to this as "reading and analyzing text".
She was taught that guessing at pictures IS reading, and now parrots that nonsense to any other students, parents, and teachers who will listen.
You people are 35 making up shit like you’re a 15 year old army. Just stream the goddamn song and go outside. I’m begging.
Tech bros live in such a funny bubble.
1. Reduce corporate taxes and personal income tax
2. Make it easy to hire and fire, this will mean wages will soar
3. Registering a company should take 200 USD and 3 hours
You will unlock new levels of German productivity. People from Sillicon Valley will be fighting to relocate to Germany in a few years.
Why are you going around guessing countries if your guess for “Asian country everyone hates” is Cuba? I’m dead serious.
