I don’t know exactly what this assignment looked like, but a
(now former) Spanish teacher at a high school in my county gave students an extra-credit “word search” that
“required them to translate vocabulary words and find them in a
grid of letters,” The News & Observer
of Raleigh reports. The teacher, named Khalid Chahhou, included the
words “destroy” and “terrorist,” and also included this
paragraph:
“(Ariel) Sharon killed a lot of
innocent people in Palestine. Hamas is not a terrorist group. They
have the right to defend their country. This is something that
forms part of our freedom and dignity. Allah help destroy this body
of evil that is making human life so miserable. Destroy America, a
country where evil is sponsored.”
Once again, our decision to homeschool our kids
is
reinforced.
