Back to School Blogs

Not being able to give you direct back to school reports, check out the last few posts on NYC Educator and Pissed off Teacher. An excerpt from POT, whose blog should not be missed if you want a veteran (math) teacher's view of what is going on:

How Low Can We Go?????

My AP went on and on today about standards, about how a diploma from our school means more than a diploma from other schools. And then....he passed out multiplication tables for us to copy and distribute to our students to use when we are teaching factoring because learning them is no longer a requirement....Talk about standards??? I didn't think our standards could ever get this low.
