re: Topics Teachers Should Avoid in grades 3-8

quote:

---

- Slavery: there is no right answer in today, even if you use facts that there is more slavery today than before

- conquest: do not mention that history has shown that stronger civilizations conquer smaller ones

- religion: do not teach religion even the facts about it because the beliefs of individuals override what is truth

- Civil War: it was only about slavery not the other topics such as states rights and what not

We shouldn’t teach middle schoolers about civics and history? Hot take, Chad.

Religion is already forbidden from being taught in public schools. I think I could actually make the argument that MORE religion, history, and civics should be taught in school.
