The Educated Kid defines education and offers parents a plan of action for ensuring that their children achieve it. Merging the goals that William Bennett enumerated as Secretary of Education, key excerpts from E. D. Hirsch’s Primary Knowledge Sequence, and the latest research, it sets forth obvious curricula and specific objectives for kids from kindergarten about The Educated Kid: A Parents Instruction from Preschool to Eighth Grade through the 8th grade, including:

-What children should be studying and the type of work they should be doing

-Important facts to understand and important reading lists

-When children should master particular math skills, spelling and grammar basics, and medical facts

-Test preparation, research, and the areas that want parental involvement

The Educated Kid also examines timely issues such as for example school choice, sex education, character education, as well as the phonics/whole language argument. Perhaps most significant, it promotes parents to be advocates for his or her children by learning what things to look for in an excellent school, how exactly to talk to teachers, and exactly how, when required, to force for needed changes. For parents concerned about their children’s current education and potential lives, it’s the ultimate handbook.
