It’s really strange how normal and encouraged it is to have kids work hard at sports but not in the classroom. Everyone loves (and it’s good) for a kid to get red in the face, break a sweat, be out of breath, grimace to do push ups or sit ups…. But never should they feel or

Every classroom needs desks in rows. The kids are happier and learning more. There is no social-emotional benefit to seating kids in groups facing each other, most without line of sight to the content and teacher. Quite the opposite.

K-12 Ed I am starting to think doesn't improve and won't because no one is allowed to talk about what could be better in the teaching, curriculum or outcomes. All dissent is punished, swiftly. The system self reinforces ignoring all problems and learning to never speak up.

We simply must STOP forcing school on kids. If they are hating it, that is a problem. We have ignored students hating school for generations. This generation is saying NO MORE! Will we listen?

It also shuts down learning for the entire class if you are asking one GenEd teacher to handle it all and there's no aide or staff help. Which in very high needs, high poverty districts, there is not.
