Think Critically Think About Your Education



"...Its reading and math, forget all the rest
you don't need to know what is not on the test.
...The school board is faced with No Child Left Behind
with rules but no funding they're caught in a bind.
So music and art and the things you love best
are not in your school 'cuz they're not on the test..."

These are some lines from the song that Tom Chapin wrote with John Foster. Think critically about the song and the video: What are the objects seen, and what is being said? Is it positive or negative? What is happening and how it is said and heard?
