better be careful. nowadays they call CPS and take the child away since you are questioning the system.
you must be a bad parent for wanting to know how they are brainwashing your child.

I not only question the system, I challenge it big time.

The teachers, the principal & the school board know me by name.

You wouldn't believe how many alternative assignments my kids got in class when the project they were doing went against our personal beliefs or I felt they were way beyond what was expected of my kids at whatever age they were at the time.

We helped out kids with their school projects, I don't care what the teacher said.

Thank you for your response. You and I sound like we've been through some of the same situations. I just felt as though the teacher should be assigning things that the kids can complete on their own so they can build some confidence. I couldn't believe that they've pushed cultural heritage two years in a row at this school now. It doesn't accomplish anything at this age except programming.

A child at the age of 7-8 typically has next to zero interest in cultural heritage. Why not have them do something like make a volcano with baking soda and vinegar. That way the parents could oversee and help a bit, but the child would get the satisfaction of building most of it and of course the chemical reaction culminating in the "eruption".

Exactly!!!! One of my college profs today said that if you don't have interest in what you are doing, then you aren't going to do well on it.

Go talk to the Superintendent of the school system & if he/she won't listen to you. Then if you have time, go to the school board.

Children of that age can't be expected to put something together like that. Middle school- maybe, high school-definitely.
