[quote=Anonymous]My son has never struggled in school and enjoys most subjects, but he came home with 3's in some science areas (everything else 4's) which surprised me, since he has always been very interested in numbers and in natural sciences, at least he was before starting K. Then he brought home s "STEM folder" which was full of Powerpoint printouts about problem solving and acting as a leader and innovating. It just looks really lame and not age appropriate. I guess the goal is to produce "Innovator" type kids. I don't get it. In Kindergarten, aren't they supposed to be germinating seeds and exploring owl pellets and things like that? Not looking at powerpoints? [/quote]
