Our daughter's regular Grade 4 teacher had to leave because of a medical emergency, and is supposed to be back after Christmas. A new teacher has been hired for November and December.
New teacher was giving the children their spelling words, telling them to make sure and put in the necessary u's in words like behaviour, colour, etc. Then she says, "Americans are lazy because they don't put those extra letters in their words."
She obviously didn't know that there was a little dual citizen in her class who has an American mother! This teacher is terrible in a multitude of ways and I found this comment very offensive! It is so wrong on all kinds of levels. Why would she try to plant a bad seed like this?
Guess this is my daughter's first bad teacher.
