Synopsis
Every day teachers go to the wailing wall over poor attendance, low reading performance, uncompleted homework assignments, and atrocious grammar. They don't get it.Hint: Bart Simpson. Hint: Beavis and Butthead. Hint: Jim Carrey in DUMB AND DUMBER.DUMB IS IN!At least one educator is in tune with the direction society has taken education in the past few decades. Veteran guidance counselor Jonathan Floyd has penned FLOYD'S RULE BOOK OF BAD GRAMMAR, a work that will prove critical to the continued dumbing down of America as the twenty-first century continues to unfold.Here are some of Floyd's controversial views on current issues in education:* LOW READING PERFORMANDELiberal educators tell us that if students score low on standardized tests, we should do away with standardized tests. In a similar vein, Floyd says if students can't read, we ought to do away with reading. FLOYD'S RULE BOOK OF BAD GRAMMAR explores a new concept called Simulated Reading (SI), an alternative to reading which allows non-readers to go through the motions of reading without actually being able to read.POOR WRITING SKILLS"Students who can't read shouldn't be expected to write," Floyd says, "otherwise they wouldn't be able to read what they just wrote." FLOYD'S RULE BOOK OF BAD GRAMMAR contains a guide to poor penmanship (or is it penmanship?) that will put you in touch with the writing style of students in today's schools who are on the cutting edge of the educational decline.OTHER ISSUESFLOYD'S RULE BOOK OF BAD GRAMMAR contains an exposition on the importance of being redundant, a glossary of frequently messpilled words, a section on punctuation errors and how to make them, tips on incoherence, an exposition on the importance of redundancy (or did I say that already?) and much more.Whether you're a student, teacher, or former student who made it through school before the decline set in, this pioneer work will tune you in to trends in modern education.
