Teri Christoph, one of the founders of Smart Girl Politics, details how a daughter of one of her friends became so upset at a quiz at school that she couldn’t finish it and had to shot it to her mother. The quiz was over President Obama’s health care speech to Congress. The students were made to watch the speech and then take the quiz. Discussion? Debate?
Not part of the curriculum:
The questions asked gave the assumption that the answers provided in the President’s speech were fact and not opinion. The students were given no opportunity to discuss opposing views or have a debate on the topic. In fact, when one student stated that the President had lied, the student was told that kind of talk was unnecessary. Students in the class with opposing views were forced to remain silent or whisper amongst themselves.
Teri has the quiz. Here’s a peek:
Parents turn their children over to the school system expecting them to educate them, not indoctrinate them. However, indoctrination is the agenda and has been for some time. You can see it has been ramped up lately, from this quiz to the video below.
Take control of your children’s education. You have to be an active participant, not on the sidelines. Find out what they are being taught. You might be surprised.
