A 7-year-old built a bridge out of popsicle sticks because her toy car needed to cross the "river." No worksheet. No rubric. Just curiosity. Finland: no testing until 16. Top outcomes. Every year. We've had the data for 20 years.

Kid in my class. Bruises. I reported it. Filed the forms. 8 weeks. That's how long the system took. I don't want a better system. I want 6 people on my street whose phone rings when something is wrong.
