Chapter 4 and 5 graphic orghanizer

,
This section was mainly about how schools are molding children into a "one shape fits all." The children at an elementary school age are called managers, and are given points in the form of currency for the work they do. The children in these schools often never hear about college and are encouraged towards jobs that require little or no education. Also government issued standardized tests are putting a lot of pressure on schools to create good scores. However students are learning very little and given little extra time besides learning what is on the standardized tests. The government views these children as creating "products" or as "robots" instead of human beings.
