microagressions where invented by sensitive white women, anyone else caring about them is cultural appropriation
The fact that micro is in the name
And we're still expected to give a shit
English language was also a white invention
"Here, take my WEAK GUN"
"And my DULL BLADE."
"Microaggressions are a big deal" By definition, they are not.
its all an act tho
by bitter people
i forgot who said it, but some dude once said
"If you give school teachers the salaries of investment bankers, they'll speak of how great capitalism is"
Not to go off into the weeds too much. But there's so many other issues with being a school teacher at the moment.
One of the key things of teaching is NEVER TO TEACH TO THE TEST.
And these days..? That's often what you're forced to do.
I dunno how many of you have experience with "SOLs"
SOL?
Standards of Learning tests.
i have experience with... the sun 😛
oh
"Yeah you're getting a grade but.. If you don't pass this inidivual test, you still fail the whole class haha!"
"So teachers, make sure you train them to know the answers to this upcoming test!"
It flies in the face of everything.
My mom's a teacher and she **haaaaated** that shit.
Hated it.
its why i spit on "theory" tests
If you pass the practical test, you're done
cuz you need to learn to apply what you know
the specific answer you can look up irl
Remember cursive? lol
I can't believe my time was wasted learning that CRAP.
SO MUCH TIME spent
On something they said we were gonna use all the time.
**NO.**
guy, in my elementary school, i was taught it was forbidden to scratch wrong answers out
You had to place crosses at the start til the end of what you wanted to scratch out
Wat.
I guess you can make the argument that learning cursive writing helps develop fine motor skills
So if i wanted to write a sentence xantx and i wanted to fix stuff i had to xmerkx mark it like this
or for xfurther numbersx longer parts, like that
you basically had to bracket the "wrong" part with crosses
so it looks less "dirty" cuz things aren't scratched out
ffs schools, its not a report or application that i hand in directly!
learning cursive is of no use when you're a doctor 😉
