[quote=Anonymous]This is common knowledge among educated people who pursue life long learning. We expect teachers to be among this class of people, or at least we used to. So, yes, not a good thing if a fourth grade teacher doesn't know this. It shows that the teacher isn't reading enough outside her teaching to pick this type of knowledge up ambiently. I knew this in seventh grade before I had even read a Dickens book. Not necessary for her to have read this book as others have said, but she should know Dickens wrote it. Imagine how respect for teachers would go up if they all actually the core common knowledge of educated people.[/quote]
