My new website covers Activism and School Curriculum and I still have the Blog. It is more manageable now. Point and clink on the title and the link should appear. The Activism site focuses on groups , organizations and people who are currently working to oppose the harmful reform taking place in our public schools. I have updated links to websites and added some new ones, all having to do with saving public schools and making them reflect the kind of schooling needed for our students. And I am still adding and always on the lookout for new innovative bloggers and websites. We learn from each other.
You will find blog sites and grass roots organizations, videos, reports and books. Hopefully you can connect with these groups or learn how to start a local chapter, a Facebook page, a blog or organization on you own. Under School Curriculum I have a special section about Special Education. The category Special Education contains groups in and of itself, but I also broke down the various exceptionalities. I hope this site helps parents find services currently lacking in their public schools. There are other areas as well, like English Language Learners.
You will also find links for various subjects from Reading to Social Studies and The Arts and others. Students are in school now, and their education won’t wait! So I felt compelled to throw in some learning sites for good measure. If you want to recommend others feel free. I will give you credit if you would like.
It is my hope that the subject links will be interesting and provide some information you might not have considered.
I will continue to blog. I have had a tough time reposting old posts recently while working on this when so much new despicable news has been flowing like a broken spigot!
So browse around and by all means tell me if something is not quite right or if I neglected a blogger or a book you want listed, etc. If it is your blog or website omitted and you think it should be included, let me know. I am still adding and may not have gotten to it, so please don’t be offended.
Before I forget, there is a new section called Designing Public Schools for you to say what public schools should be like. If you would like to express your thoughts on this, put them into three sentences for good measure. Public schools should be about what we want collectively for America’s students. You can continue to do this whenever you think of what public schools should do. Or what they already do that you do like!
Mail Chimp is a new feature I am learning about, so I will try to get newsletters out accordingly.
Keep working to revive, rally and recover public schools! And be of good cheer!
Thanks to Hunter and Josh for helping me with my new website. I could not have done it without you. I am deeply appreciative.
Tomorrow I will be back to blogging, so check in!
