Why do so many teachers feel the need to confuse kids with confusing language?

My little niece asked me how she was supposed to draw a picture of the conclusion of the book she was supposed to read for her 4th grade class and I was confused, so I looked at the question and it was, “what conclusions can you draw from the text?” She’s fricking 9! How about you don’t word it to where you’re trying to confuse her. When I explained that they just wanted her to write about what she read she was like oh ok, and knocked it out easy. Does anyone else get irrationally angry at these schools and their stupid wording in textbooks (online articles now) and tests they give? I mean I don’t understand why so many educators feel like testing children’s abilities to decipher confusing language is a gauge of a intelligence or knowledge gained

Linguistics is white supremacy and designed to turn our children into transgenders.

Just wait until they get to HS and start dissecting frigging gay frogs

It's a pretty straightforward question, maybe your family is just dumb?

Maybe that should be done by her reading and spelling teacher

Frogs are no longer used. The liberals running education today are using aborted fetal pigs. Subconsciously, these messages are leaking into our girls and used as a solution to teen pregnancy.

Because 1) she was trying to teach her a new word 2) That is the type of wording on state tests that this country says our children need to keep our place in the global market

Sorry that your niece is slow. Maybe she'll be pretty when she grows up and be able to coast on easy mode
