Liberals better tell this girl next time to say the white boys were wearing MAGA hats. Maybe next time she can get some pointers from christine Ford.

What ever penalty her attackers would face, should be the penalty she now faces too.

They’re giving Fs to first graders now? I’d like to know more about a “vocabulary assessment” for first graders that results in a letter grade. The correct thing to do there is to TEACH THE KID SOME VOCABULARY- not send home an F. First grade.

How long has it been since you had a 1st grader or were in first grade? A lot has changed. It’s ridiculous.

You seem pretty determined.

It’s words like Cat, Car, Bike, Dog, and they have to write the word and then draw a line to the picture that goes with the word. It’s a spelling vocab test. My wife gives them the word, they spell it and then they match the definition picture to the spelling word. It’s not rocket surgery…She didn’t draw the lines to the pictures. So she got half credit. It is three or four words…spelling counted for more than getting the definition correct. The girl didn’t even try doing the proper definition. They did a practice test the day before, and this was clearly explained then as well. Girl just got careless and either forgot or didn’t do it.

OK…so our school system has this ridiculous stringency standard…My wife’s first graders are supposed to be reading at a third grade level when they leave first grade. These standards have nothing to do with how much the student has learned…these benchmarks are designed to keep from paying her money. She needs to have all of her students at a certain point…she has to show a certain percentage of growth…so they put these benchmarks on these kids at a very early age…and it does nothing to help the students…but it affects the teachers evaluation and thus what kind of raise or bonus they get.

The purpose of assessments in early elementary ed is to help teachers plan effective instruction. And on that note, I am done.

Looks like the preemptive strike and silent coup on president in waiting Pence has failed.

And it is also to supply the school system with an effective assessment not just of educational skills but of social skills such as following directions being able to complete simple tasks. That F could be an early sign of a learning disability…so it has to be documented.

Are you a school teacher @Munimula1? I am not but My father, Mother, wife and Son are, and I know what is and isn’t when it comes to education.

I can only wonder how many heard the story but will never hear that she made it up.

I agree. What the heck happened to the kids she accused? Can you even IMAGINE the uproar in the home this caused?

An apology doesn’t undo damage. People who pull attention seeking stunts like this at the expense of other people’s well being shouldn’t get away with a slap on the wrist.
