Introduction	Teaching kids in East LA was supposed to pay for my R & R band's rehearsal space. It turns out the kids were way more fun than screaming into a microphone. We got to do all my favorite things: sing, role play, paint, do experiments (the more goo the better), design math games, read and write. After 23+ years in the classroom and raising a couple kids of my own, I decided to write Grade by Grade: Excellent Elementary Education Made Easy. It’s time Parents learned how to get the most out of every grade at any school. The book isn't published yet, but you can get great information from my blog. You can ask questions and share parenting experiences,too.
