Monday Matters #20

Jonathan Kozol talks about children and education in America;


  • Children are equal in the eyes of God, but not in America's eyes for some reason
  • Children are brought up as if they have price tags
  • Inner city schools: not enough attention for students, individually
  • While Suburban areas have more time, and balanced. 
  • Teachers are scared in city for the test time and scores
  • NO TIME!!
  • Kids are good at distracting the teacher from the relevant topic
  • The teacher has to unlock what the student loves, fears, hates, for their own well-being
  • The student must grow beyond themsleves!!
