i feel as a parent our students isnt getting the proper education our children need do to the fact . That there assignments are pit on the black board with no instructions. writing out the assignments is good but some students dont understand what tbey are suppose to do in English or Math they need more instrctions how to do it. thats what are tax dollars pay for. For our children to get what they are suppose to do. anyone can put anything on a black board. but if you have not been showed an example how are they suppose to do it woth out instructions.
