There can be racial things, but a racial good is by definition also a racial harm, since race is a system of domination. The difference depends on which “race” we are talking about. The racial paradigm, globally, is known and needs no abstraction—indeed, abstracting becomes its own sort of racial project by denying the very real power of whiteness as a global and local variable in human relations. Footnote 42 Likewise, limited attempts at a theory of “relational goods” obscures or ignores real-world racism and the allocation of relational harms. Footnote 43 This aspect of white things—that they have no equivalent for other groups—means that non-white people often have to navigate them, as sociologist Elijah Anderson explains, “as a condition of their existence.” Footnote 44 James 3:17 “ But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” During the 1970s, racially naive economic frameworks that were developed in the 1950s and 1960s entered the mainstream of public policy. As they entered the mainstream of educational policy specifically, left- as well as right-leaning educational researchers began speaking of the politics and function of schooling through classical economic theories of production and consumption, including efficiency, markets, and public goods/private goods. Footnote 18 According to this “goods” model, public schooling in the United States served two competing kinds of goals: allocating public goods such as political socialization and human capital development, both of which benefited society as a whole, and the allocation of the private good of mobility—individual competitive advantage in a capitalist economy achieved primarily through credentialing. Footnote 19 The role of whiteness in these accounts was secondary and exceptional. Moreover, this same public goods/private goods framing soon captured the heart of federal and state school policy and jurisprudence as well, driving efforts toward privatization and toward “school choice” policy solutions such as vouchers for private schools or quasi-private “charter schools,” tuition tax credits, and other approaches.

An open day is your chance to get a feel for the school, inspect the facilities and chat with pupils and staff. We've a list of questions to ask and essentials to look out for. Julie makes valid points that we all need to consider as moms and teachers. My favorite question she asks us to prayerfully ponder is “What is God’s will for this family?” instead of, “What curriculum should we be using”? Traits like cooperation can play an important role in students’ success.

Solomon wrote, "… Of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh" (Ecclesiastes 12:12). He is not saying not to study, but that because there is no end to learning, we should not place undue emphasis on it. This book is wonderful regardless of it your new to homeschooling or not. It really feels like your listening to a dear friend tell you all she's learned and what's worked for her family and why. It could be a great deal of encouragement for someone struggling or wonderful wisdom for parents with children at any age. I really enjoyed reading about high school

Job 28:28 “Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to depart from evil is understanding.” Proverbs 15:33 “The fear of the Lord is the instruction for wisdom, and before honor comes humility.” Ilana Horwitz does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organisation that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their academic appointment. Partners From the early seventeenth century to the early twentieth, Europeans conquered, commodified, and “developed” a vast swath of territory—some three million square miles of the earth's surface in what became the lower forty-eight states. Land was the cause of war, the basis of wealth, and the driver of politics and law. Footnote 47 Control of places became a key mechanism that white Americans have used to maintain their advantage over people they raced as others. God Schooling is focused and informed by the child’s passions and their natural bents and interestsWhen she isn't dreaming up new stories to write, studying the latest healthcare trends, or digging into Bible truth, you might find her sipping Thai iced tea. Or, getting lost in the woods. Over the past 30 years, sociologists and economists have conducted several studies that consistently show a positive relationship between religiosity and academic success. These studies show that more religious students earn better grades and complete more schooling than less religious peers. But researchers debate what these findings really mean, and whether the seeming effect of religiosity on students’ performance is really about religion, or a result of other underlying factors. Corinthians 2:6-10 “Yet when I am among mature believers, I do speak with words of wisdom, but not the kind of wisdom that belongs to this world or to the rulers of this world, who are soon forgotten. 7 No, the wisdom we speak of is the mystery of God—his plan that was previously hidden, even though he made it for our ultimate glory before the world began. 8 But the rulers of this world have not understood it; if they had, they would not have crucified our glorious Lord. 9 That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” 10 But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets.” If you want to know more about what unschooling looks like, especially from a Christian perspective or if you just want some encouragement and ways you can integrate more real life learning into your student’s education God Schooling: How God Intended Children to Learn is a great book. ** Also, she has a 1/2 price sale on the e-book version until August 22nd**

The section of the book that I needed to read most was probably the chapter titled, “Giving Teens Wings So They Can Fly”. My oldest son is twelve and so the teen years are very near for our family. Unintentionally, three of the books that I have read this summer have discussed how the modern age group of ‘teenagers’ is really a new lifestyle/category. Before somewhere around the late 1930s you did not see ‘teenagers’ as a separate culture. Most often once a child reached that age he/ she began working or contributing to the family in some way. Popular culture today paints teens in a negative light and holds them to very low expectations. However, Julie Polanco shares how she provided her children with opportunities to be involved in real life and contribute. It is important that we have high expectations for our teenagers and give them the opportunity to succeed and do great things. Then Moses commanded them, saying, "At the end of every seven years, at the time of the year of remission of debts, at the Feast of Booths, when all Israel comes to appear before the LORD your God at the place which He will choose, you shall read this law in front of all Israel in their hearing. "Assemble the people, the men and the women and children and the alien who is in your town, so that they may hear and learn and fear the LORD your God, and be careful to observe all the words of this law. read more. The violence has changed since state and federal governments stepped up enforcement against overt racial terrorism in the late 1960s and ’70s. Instead, the last half-century has added a whole new arsenal against our non-white children: zero-tolerance punishment regimes in schools and, outside of them, the coordinated massification of criminal justice. Footnote 106 Julie realized after not too many years that it became a real chore trying to get the kids to do what she thought they should be doing. God Schooling Whether a move to Essex is on the cards for your family or you've already put down roots in the area, our new guide to the county's best schools is essential readingSecular Unschooling allows the child to learn what they want when they want, how they want, and if they want. It often looks hands-off. l Moses was raised with the Egyptians. He received an Egyptian education. Students were taught reading, writing, mathematics, medicine, geography, history, music, and science. The Book of Instruction was used to teach morality, ethics, and humanities. Since Moses was in the royal household, he would have received a specialized education that was reserved for children of the nobility. This included instruction on the ways of court and religious teaching. Many of the children of noble households would leave their education to become priests and scribes.

The argument was scandalously naive in its bipolar account of private individuals and public society. “I assume no mystical collective mind that enjoys collective consumption goods,” Samuelson wrote. “Instead I assume each individual has a set of ordinal preferences with respect to his consumption of all goods (collective as well as private).” Footnote 11 Of course, whiteness was, and is, just such a “collective mind,” influenced by the collective utility of white goods to any white person. Whiteness ran through local, state, and federal law, social custom, residential and employment patterns, so-called public and so-called private activity alike at the very time that Samuelson wrote those words. Footnote 12 Resistance to whiteness and the collective identities formed by minoritized people were also neither public nor private. The mysticism was in Samuelson's theory.Timothy 3:16 “ All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness.”
