[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When most of these teachers went to school for elementary education, there was no training in pre algebra. The push on math has left out so many basics. The teachers struggle to work with changed-robotic curriculums. They are given class sizes in the 30's sometimes and a "rush to test" atmosphere makes it horrible to teach. I feel for teachers. I much rather them get math specialists than reading specialists. [/quote] That is the point I have been making. Thank you!!![/quote] Yes. Most other countries have specific math teachers from the get go. I never had the same teacher for math and language art growing up. I really think this is one of the main reasons that Americans kids are turned off by math. [/quote]
