Please don't remove students from physical education, music, Arts, or other classes to remediate them in other areas. These classes are just as important for overall education and may be their favorite classes and one reason they like school.

Hear is a fascinating chart to have students analyze and respond to. What does it say? What does it not say? Why does it matter? (This could be a good substitute for the article of the week).
