The poorly written letter was mocked online Thursday after an appalled parent took a pen to the piece and posted a now-viral revised version to social media.
Hey @VEA4Kids, are you going to send out more of these grammar worksheets over break?' parent Ellen Gallery wrote Thursday morning.
My kids and I had a great time spotting errors! Did we find them all?' she wrote.
Despite only being five paragraphs long, the peeved parent spotted - and corrected - roughly 20 errors in the piece, many of them extremely glaring

Yet the PTB insist that we all spend 12 years+ in these cluster ***** called schools.
ReplyDeleteExactly.
DeleteThis is exactly why public schools are now useless and need to be shut down.
ReplyDeleteA far cry from the curriculum when I went to school.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Brock & Your Family!
ReplyDeleteThis story made me reminisce about my baby brother (now 71 years old) when was in 6th grade and had to write a paper about what he wanted to do when he grew up. My brother is a nice guy, and very large physically even back in 6th grade. He wanted to go to "college to become a school teacher." Several places in his essay included the word "college." He didn't get a very good grade, as his young female teacher crossed out in red pen every place he had written "college" and wrote "collage" repeatedly in red. Her written comment was "Learn how to spell!" My mother was a 4th grade teacher at the time and nearly went ballistic over this Idiot, but restrained herself and let it go. Maybe she knew nothing good would come of complaining and my brother might get hurt even more by this Harpie.
& the same to you, Ma'am! Great story and it sounds like the teachers today.:(

ReplyDeleteAll at work producing this "fine" example of a letter.
