[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't it great that they are now teaching about some of the major SA countries. Its about time for American kids to improve their geography. You can use this as an opportunity to broaden their horizons and teach about other countries as well. They can use their new knowledge to create a presentation for their class or at least a display board.[/quote] As an immigrant, I strongly disagree. Elementary school is the time to teach children about the history of the country they are living in. PERIOD. Learn about Asia in High School and college. If you’re an immigrant, who do desires to, teach it at home. But American kids need to learn about America and its history before they start to learn about world history. Do you think they teach Bangladeshi history in Japanese elementary schools? This is crazy! [/quote]
