      Kentucky made news this week when it announced that coach Billy Gillispie had offered a scholarship to California 8th grader Michael Avery. Gillispie saw Avery play at a LeBron James sponsored event in Akron, and decided to offer the guard, who is yet to decide which high school he will attend, a spot on the Wildcats 2012-2013 squad."We're taking things one day at a time," the player's father, Howard Avery, told the Lexington Herald-Journal last week. "Right now, (Gillispie) is there and he's a terrific coach. Without a doubt, Kentucky is a terrific program. Factors change.

      Are You Financially Smarter Than A 12th Grader?
      Every two years, the Jump$tart Coalition issues a "personal finance" exam to high school seniors. The test highlights the importance of personal financial literacy among America's youth and comes at an especially important juncture.  Many experts -- including Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke -- believe that basic financial knowledge is essential for (and lacking in) teenagers.  Jump$tart's exam did little to disprove this. This year, 12th graders answered 48.3% correct on average and posted the lowest scores since Jump$tart first issued the test in 1996. A sample question from the 31-question test: Which of the following types of investment would best protect the purchasing power of a family’s savings in the event of a sudden increase in inflation?

      11TH GRADER SHOOTS AFTER GANG-RELATED ARGUMENT
      In Memphis, Tennessee, a high-school student was shot multiple times after a supposedly gang-related argument with another student. The gunman of the shooting, an 11th grader at Mitchell High School, shot the student three times, in the neck, chest, and the groin. The shooting happened around 9 am in PE class when the two students began to argue. One boy pulled out a gun and shot the other three times. The shooter then walked up to the PE instructor, handed him the gun, and said, “It’s over now.” He was quickly taken into school custody soon after and the victim was rushed to the nearest hospital in stable condition. The 11th grade teen was charged with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm. Throughout all of this drama, there is one main reason the shooting happened, the sc

      8th Grader kills himself for God
      A 14-year-old boy, Dennis Lindberg, killed himself under the instructions of a sadistic cult. This action was blessed by Skagit County (Washington) Superior Court Judge, John Meyer, who prohibited the State of Washington from interfering in the youth’s suicide pact. Unfortunately, no criminal action will be brought against either the “Cult” or Judge Meyer, because the “Cult” is the Jehovah’s Witnesses, and the method of suicide the youth chose was to refuse treatment that would have given him a 70% chance of survival. TJM author Luci recently wrote about another senseless death associated with Jehovah’s Witness prohibition on accepting blood transfusions. Basically, JWs are prohibited from consuming the blood of an animal. “Church” leaders decided that hospital patients can be fed intravenously, a blood transfusion is food. What? TJM reader Jerry Jones (his link) commented: Jehovah’s Witnesses refuse to acknowledge that when h

"He did not mean any harm."School district officials declined to comment. State law bars them from discussing disciplinary actions against specific students.The disciplinary report given to Weathers stated the reason for the suspension was the boy "threatened to shoot two girls in the head." ...

      A First-Grader's Guide To Business Process
      Have you ever tried to describe your sales process to a potential investor or new hire? Or tried to explain the why it rains to a child? The communication concepts are the same.  The water cycle is a process just like any other. Its cyclical nature and multiple inputs/outputs create quite a challenge to teachers and parents alike. To truly understand the water cycle requires knowledge of physics, chemistry, geology, meteorology, and more. Try explaining the details of sediment transport to a young child, or anyone else for that matter, to understand the concept of futility. The beauty of the process diagram is that it abstracts away those minute granular details in exchange for conceptual clarity and mass appeal. This is not coincidentally its downfall as well.

      Smarter than a fifth-grader?
      It's a television show. And now it's a science project for a Bonita Springs sixth grader. The Naples Daily News reports that Antonia Jacobse, who's in the full-time gifted program at Bonita Springs Middle, wants to study how many adults can pass the fifth-grade science FCAT. So she showed up at a Lee County School Board meeting to ask board members and senior staffers to take the exam. She even made it easier for them, removing the short-answer questions, leaving just the multiple choice ones. Most agreed. And they got a lesson of their own. "I thought that it was challenging," superintendent James Browder told the Daily News. "It certainly taught me that ... if you’re not exposed to the material you’re definitely at a disadvantage." The exercise got board members talking about the importance of staying more in tune with student experiences. They also noted how much more students must learn today than when they were kids. But they never lost track of politics, either. Boar

Only a Level 5 — for murder, possessing firearms, committing aggravated or sexual assault, arson or other felonies — is more severe.Shelby's parents, Lisa and Stu Sendelbach, say they do not condone what their daughter did. Nevertheless, they are fighting to get her punishment reduced because they believe it is too harsh.The Sendelbachs said they expected a lesser punishment such as an in-school suspension and community service.

      LAWRENCE, Mass. --A substitute teacher who ran after a fleeing first-grader and pulled the boy down the hallway by his shirt has been charged with assault and battery.Douglas Tracia, 48, left scratches and lacerations on the boy's neck in the incident, caught on a surveillance camera Tuesday at South Lawrence East School, police said."It looked as if someone had tried to strangle him," Lina Tejada, the mother of the 7-year-old boy, told the Eagle-Tribune of Lawrence.Superintendent Wilfredo Laboy said Tracia, of Georgetown, was suspended without pay until the criminal case is resolved. Tracia has worked as a substitute teacher since January."These things are very serious matters, and even if it's alleged or unsubstantiated, it's a very serious thing," Laboy said.Tracia's phone number was unlisted and he could not be reached for comment.The video shows the boy running down an empty school hallway and through a set of double doors with Tracia running after him.

      My Inner 7th Grader at APE
      The weirdest thing about doing convention interviews is approaching a person or a company I know nothing about. Luckily, most people seem OK with it, and we have a nice chat. Other times, that zit-faced, acid-washed jeans wearing 7th grader I used to be takes over, and it’s difficult to keep the interview going with thoughts like “Are my bangs feathered enough?” and “Is there beef jerky stuck in my teeth?” and “Is my t-shirt on backward?” running through my head. (The t-shirt thing happened on picture day. It was tie-die. Don’t judge me). One of the cold interviews that went OK was with Brianne Mees. Brianne and her husband Jared operate Tender Loving Empire, an indie publishing company based in Portland, OR, which produces an eclectic mix of media. Pink Raygun: Can you give us an overview of Tender Loving Empire? Brianne Mees: My husband and I both run Tender Loving Empire and it’s all hand screenprinted and we do comics, s

      Something No Eighth Grader Is Supposed to Know
      Coffeekid: "You know that song, Mama Mia?"Me: "Yep."Coffeekid: "Today in music class the teacher put that cd on while we worked. I knew like, seven songs on that stupid thing. I couldn't help but start to sing along with it when it was on. I knew all the words"Me: "That's cool. But really... none of the other kids knew those songs?"Coffeekid: "No. Not even the teacher knew all the words. The kids couldn't believe I knew them and they asked me how I knew it... I said 'my mom'."Me: "See? Having a vast knowledge of many different songs serves you well in life!"Coffeekid: "Mom! No. You are missing the point. Knowing all the words to Mama Mia does not serve a kid well in eighth grade!"

      Is the Average Photojournalist Smarter than a Fifth Grader?
      This Week in Education Blogger Alexander Russo included a brief (4:13) video excerpt from This American Life. It will make perfect sense to those of you familiar with the 5th grade mindset. This from Alexander."Once in a while, strange little crazes start in schools, often making adults crazy in the process. Showing his roots as an education reporter, This American Life's Ira Glass included a segment about a video-making craze that overtook one set of kids in the show's video premier, which aired last week. Not surprisingly, the craze turned out badly, and the grownups had to step in. It's shown here for free: Video: embedded. I think you can also watch the full segment online here."

      A 5th Grader On Math Programs
      A couple of weeks ago, I posted a video on why the U.S. is so far behind the rest of the world in math. And now, here is a testimonial from a CHILD, who went from using one of the programs mentioned in the other video, to two of those mentioned as being great! Interesting that even this little girl could see a huge difference in one year. YouTube Link For some reason this video won’t post, so here’s the link: 5th Grader On Math Education, math, Videos
