Teacher "X" teaches 5 classes. He teaches 3 Algebra classes, 1 Advanced Algebra class, and 1 remedial class. His first four classes are okay, but his last class is utter chaos!

Why?

Is it because the class has 43 students instead of 35?

Or maybe because the majority of the students don't speak English?

Could it be that it's late in the day and the kids are tired?

Or maybe, just maybe, the kids are DOWN-RIGHT LAZY?

Stop blaming the hard-working, dedicated teachers!

@MsJanetWood You nailed it, MOST of the problem lies with the kids and parents.

The kids that talk loud and laugh during the movie! The ones that throw popcorn at the screen! The ones that run up and down the movie aisles. The ones that keep getting up to go to the bathroom! Those kids!

Do you think those kids could sit down for a 45 minute Math Lesson?

They can't sit still during a movie! You think they are going to pay attention to their math teacher?

So, who do we blame? The teacher? The administrators? The parents? Or the kids?

Dear Ms. Michelle Rhee,

I would like to inform you of a job opening at McGavock High School in Nashville Tennessee.

An Algebra teacher, Mr.Donald Wood recently was let go . . . Perhaps, this is your opportunity to prove that you are just not an arm-chair quarterback. I want to see you do it! 3 months! That is all!

Hey, if you think you're qualified to evaluate teachers, then, you should be able to teach, right?

Sincerely yours,

Ms. Janet Wood

Would you BLAME the POLICE OFFICER working in a HIGH CRIME AREA?

Would you BLAME the DOCTOR working in a hospital with a lot of SICK people?

Would you BLAME the LAWYER working with a lot of CRIMINALS?

Would you BLAME the BORDER PATROL AGENTS for all the ILLEGAL ALIENS that are crossing the border?

Would you BLAME the SOCIAL WORKER with a lot of WELFARE CASES?

NO? Why not?

Because there are other FACTORS beyond their control! STOP BLAMING THE TEACHERS!

DO YOUR HOMEWORK!

I bet all of those Urban Americans are mad, they had to bring in a Korean to fix the mess they have made. Maybe, just maybe the schools will see some improvement......NAH, not any real improvement.

@regionfree1 Well, I do not wish anyone ill.....but, I see this as a failed country, things will only get worse. And I think the Demorats will just gain more and more power when they pass amnesty for illegals, more and more crumbling cities and trillion spent on Anchor babies. I do not like the Republirats much more than the Demorats.....but the Dems are insane. And yeah, throwing more money at schools has not and will not "fix" things, that will take motivated kids and parents.

@tickyul You've shown plenty of ignorance in you previous posts about high-speed rail, and I don't expect any different in other subjects. The Republican Party, and increasingly the Democratic Party, is corporate controlled. Corporate interests are getting in the way of the interests of the commonwealth. It's freakin' sad. I know a school in which almost all the teachers have a second job. One is working at a Trader Joes for the health benefits. California teachers are being forced to

@tickyul take furlough days. There is no money to buy any practice books or workbooks. So while the country has no money for public education and is putting it's kids' futures in jeopardy, strangely it has enough to give oil companies subsidies, subsidize the fishing industry, and spend $600 billion every year on the military.

I am a Houston teacher who wants to communicate with TFA teachers. I respect your work, but believe TFA leaders are too close to conservatives. They blame schools and teachers, not our unequal society, for every education failing. This goes back to TFA's founding, when Wendy Kopp built an alliance with Union Carbide, whose negligence caused 100,000 casualties in India, and continued with her hookup with the Edison Project, which wanted to replace public schools with corporate schools.

I'll be watching Ms Rhee. Hopefully she'll make a huge difference in DC schools. A radical approach may be just what the doctor ordered.
