Megan Stielstra's Blog

I was listening to NPR the other day, and heard perhaps the greatest segment ever. I came home and wrote 848 for a text copy and was put in contact with the writer, Daniel Ferri, a sixth grade teacher for Chicago Public Schools. He was kind enough to forward the piece to me, via a website with a lot great information about No Child Left Behind, school standards and other things we all should be aware of about the current state of our education system. I know some of the folks who check this blog now and again are teachers, or soon-to-be teachers, so please give Ferri's piece a read (it also involves broken wrists and dice games. Right up my alley).
