The Bell Curve
According to the web page: http://www.locoloboevents.com/display_bio.php?id=7991, a man named Charles Murry wrote a controversial book in 1995. The book was called "The Bell Curve." The web page states, "In the book, he mentioned that Marva Collins' work would have no long lasting effects on children. 60 Minutes...wanted to find out if this was true. So, they ran a second story showcasing the lives of the first thirty-three students who attended Westside Preparatory School. Statistically, one of the students should have been shot, two in jail and five on welfare. This was not the case. All thirty-three students, now adults, were leading very successful lives with a majority choosing teaching as a profession."
We will read about Weside Preparatory School later in the book. As of right now, do you see any reasons why these children are successful? Is there anything that Marva Collins does in chapter 1 that makes you believe that the children will be successful? Is there anything that she does that makes you surprised that these children are successful? I'd like your thoughts and opinions on this.
