3 R Rubrics 3

Being a recently retired substitute teacher, I thought it would be interesting to blog about my experiences in the classrooms I work. As an "exponent" of the traditional 3 R's, (Readin', 'ritin', & 'rithmetic) I would interpret, expound and advocate the extention of the "R's" cubically through rubrics that promote more than the basics. The reason for this is to expand the concept: "No Child Left Behind" or "No Test Left Behind" to "No Rationale for Rigorous Romancing of Rhetoric Left Behind".
