to Sloth, HG and to anyone else who has a problem with the teacher, ask yourselves this question. How many students will remember the lessons they were taught during the display in a year, or even in a decade?
Compare the number of students who learn the traditional method of memorizing a load of needless dates versus the kids from her class and the LESSONS (and notice the plural) they were taught in the experiment. How is a teacher taking a pro active role in teaching a bad thing? Sure she could have done a better job, yet I commend her trying to TEACH. In a few years the method will be a lot better/smoother and cause less drama. If people have a problem with her methods, move your child to a different school or even better, home school your own kids. Until you can do a better job yourself, people need to stop wasting the oxygen of talking. Again, just IMHO ; )[/quote]
Lets also show some videos of people getting decapitated, beaten to death, disemboweled and other wise brutally killed, you know, to teach a lesson on violence. They wont forget that huh?

Having kids re-enact the Battle of Gettysburg is one thing but having them re-enact a Klan rally or cross burning is completely different. Figures it was in Georgia.[/quote]
I think re-enacting a Klan rally is a good idea, but the teacher better have tenure and signed permission slips from all the parents.
It’s a part of our past. It need to be exposed to the light of day.
They should re-enact the refounding of the Klan on Stone Mountain, GA and have the kids recite the oaths there by the Founding Council, not just some random cross burning. Go back to the founding.

Stone Mountain. The Klan’s version of Mt. Rushmore.

The fact that you are a teacher is truly frightening. Any other great ideas?

I think presenting things so students remember them is a good thing.
