Fifth grade
teacher Bertha Tso helps students learn the correct pronounciation of
the weekly spelling words taken from a textbook designed for use in
classrooms across America. It is textbooks such as these that are
used to meet state standards in teaching and preparing for
standardized testing. |

I think the
goal that they have set through No Child Left Behind Act is
impossible. I really feel that, that it is another --I don't know
what you would call it-- but several years back they started wanting
to brainwash all the Native Americans with the English ways of living
as well as speaking. I feel like No Child Left Behind Act wants the
English only in the classroom but it's in a subtle way. The term No
Child Left Behind Act, the words, really catches everybodys
attention. We don't want any child to be left behind but that's just
a phrase that kind of tricks us into learning the English only.
