Striking For The Wrong Reasons, Teachers!!

Unless you are prepared to really think, for at least one minute, about the picture you will draw in your mind after reading the very next paragraph, then please stop reading now.

Can you imagine having to instruct 25 - 45 "UN-DISCIPLINED" kids every day for one hour? Imagine doing this with different groups of 25 - 45 "UN-DISCIPLINED" kids each hour for six additional hours. In other words, spending 7 hours per day with 7 different groups of  25 - 45 "UN-DISCIPLINED" kids. That is 175 - 315 "UN-DISCIPLINED" kids a day. Please, can you draw a picture in your mind now?

Wouldn't you want to contact your union and demand a strike for a higher salary?

Of course you would, but why? What word appears to be stand out in this discussion so far? So why are our teachers striking for more pay and risking alienation of the average tax-payer? They should force, demand immediately, their unions to require more "DISCIPLINE" in the classroom environments. By striking for more "DISCIPLINE," widespread support is generated from all teachers, administrators, parents, guardians, students, even non-union workers. "DISCIPLINE" is what is missing in so many of our schools in The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. If the student receives disciplined structure everyday, might that have a positive societal impact? Who would argue with that?

Teachers love their students and students love their teachers. Think about your favorite teacher. With more "DISCIPLINE" in the classroom, our teachers can teach. They can teach with a lot less stress. They can fall back in love with teaching. Because their job will become easier, they will feel they are properly compensated.

STRIKING FOR MORE CLASSROOM DISCIPLINE IS A VERY BALANCED AND A VERY BASIC FIRST STEP APPROACH FOR  IMPROVING THE AMERICAN EDUCATION SYSTEM!

Say it ain't so!!

Great Book about Little League Baseball

I know baseball season is just around the corner but I found a fantastic Little League book written as if it came from the mind of the Little Leaguer himself. It captures a young boy's dreams and the daily dramas in a very real way. The author does a good job of creating the personality of each player and developing their character. By doing so, the book draws you into their daily lives and the struggles they go through as they slowly develop into a very competitive team. Yes, it is a book about Little League Baseball. However, it brings out some of the conflicts that our youth still struggle with today and puts them in a very positive light. In the intersection of our lives with baseball, this perfect book for any young boy stands up as a must read!

Fortunately, it is in both E-book and paperback formats. If your child likes sports, particularly a team sport like baseball, he will love this book! The name of the book is Little League Heroes, authored by Joe Jackson.
