[Ohiogift] Teaching in Ohio has become impossible

[Art Snyder]

        Everyone:
 
 Today's  Dayton Daily News has reprinted an article from the Washington Post  about how teaching in Ohio has become almost impossible.
 
 The author is a veteran classroom teacher and education columnist, Scott Ervin. His very active blog is here:
 http://askthekidwhisperer.com/
 
 The 1,500-word essay is important for understanding the "system" from a teacher's perspective. The  essay is attached, as an ordinary .rtf file that is accessible by  Apple/Mac fans, as well as MS Word users who prefer a .doc format. Ervin also has a link to the article from the home page of his blog.
 
 You also can access the article (with more than 700 reader comments!) on the Washington Post site:

 Feel free to share this message with colleagues and others who are dedicated to serving today's classroom children.
 
 Special thanks to Jean Kremer (jeankremer at live.com) for suggesting this article to be shared near and far.
 
 Best wishes,
 Art Snyder
