[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]unbelieable. can our expectations of good teachers be any lower? is it ok to teach mount vernon but choose to not visit there even once? of course it is 'ok' because we should expect the bare minimum from our teachers... seriously why even bother sending kids to any field trips then? get a samsung VR headset and you can check off everything on your bucket list.[/quote]

My expectations of teachers have nothing to do with them visiting a few local/regional historic sites.

Seriously, the only one who cares about this is you, OP. Why not spend your energy worrying about things that matter. [/quote]

i'm not OP. and there're two of us who care, sorry to disappoint.[/quote]

Ok. There are at least two fools concerned about this.  :roll:

naming calling. nice.[/quote]

It's "name calling" NOT "naming calling." You should learn how to write before criticizing teachers for doing anything, as this isn't your first mistake in this thread. I find it rich that you are here criticizing teachers for something absolutely insane, but you can't write a proper sentence to save your life. You and OP both sound unhinged and I feel sorry for whoever has to deal with your brats.[/quote]

[b]Why can't s teacher in her 40's or 50's grab her car and make the effort to visit an archeological museum that is 2 hrs drive[/b]? Teaching is not about putting students to watch videos almost every day, it is about actively making presentations and allowing students to ask questions. 
I truly feel sorry for your poor judgement. [/quote]

Are you daft? Never mind. I answered my own question.

It's not enough that your child's teacher teaches the curriculum and accompanies your student on this field trip, but said teacher must make a cursory visit prior to the field trip, on his/her own time and dime, in order to teach this requirement of the curriculum (which is not all that important to ANYONE outside of VA)? What are you even talking about? Also, unless this is his/her first year teaching 4th grade, he/she has visited already. Or are you saying that this is such an important place it's shameful to wait until 4th grade to incorporate it into the curriculum? You make no sense. [/quote]
