Isn't it sad that education policy makers seem convinced that the original thoughts of children, interactions of children with other children, and the development of activities that stimulate and entertain are of little to no value to children? It goes back to something I heard a few months ago--at a distance children may appear to be a problem to be fixed rather individuals to be developed. Teachers know better.
