Bubble Over
Let learning bubble over with life.
The bubble over network
It's time for bubble tests to be over. Instead, education must bubble over with the strengths, interests, and personality of each student. Learning must bubble over with life.
We are working to create an education that focuses on students as people not numbers. See above for the next meeting date. For updates, subscribe to the rss feed for this blog.

We had bubbles. We had a bubble machine (it froze over). We had Channel 7 news. We had signs. We had a brief round of "Bubble, bubble is toil and trouble." We had signs like "Take back the bubbles" and "Obama got bubble? Not his kids" and "Life is not a bubble test" and "Children are not standardized." We had lots of puzzled looks when we said, "We're taking the bubbles back!" (but they did look at the flyer then!) We had cold hands. We had a good time.
