[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Still waiting for people to talk about how teaching has changed to be more advantageous to girls. [/quote] Some of it is biological according to NYT article about this - boys mature later than girls do, yet the academic expectations of the younger grades has increased over time as have testing standards which affect how classroom time is utilized (prep to test bc experiential). Recess used to be 60-90 min daily, unstructured. That was early to mid 20th century. Yet weekly recess time has decreased by sixty minutes since just 2001.[/quote] So first you're saying that the focus on girls activities and programs meant for girls has caused the downfall of boys, but now you're saying it's just lack of recess? Make up your minds.[/quote] I never said any of that. You realize there are a lot of posters here, right? I’m answering the question. [/quote]
