[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC's 1st grade teacher has sent a few parents, including us, emails asking to stop teaching things to our kids at home and that they are not "ready" for the things we are teaching them. [/quote] Is this story for real? I worked in education for eight years, and I never heard a story like this. It seems like a big assumption for the teacher to make. I wonder what exactly the teacher thinks you and the other parents did. What if a child was reading about a subject on his/her own, and it had nothing to do with the parents? As a parent, I'd want the teacher to describe what they're seeing in the classroom. Then, they could say what is negative about what they're seeing. Then everybody could figure out what led to the negative effect, and who could do what to avoid that. [/quote]
