Blog #5- Finn

 For my Blog I will be reflecting on this article as well as adding some of my own personal experience in my schools over the years.

The article was based on explaining the different social classes and how they were different from one another. They talk about schooling between rich and poor and how it is segregated based on a social class. They classify which jobs are considered different classes. They say that middle class schools had skilled blue collar workers and some white collar workers. They also talk about how a traditional middle class job is a social worker, middle managers, teachers. 

Growing up I was more middle class. My mom was a teacher and my dad a firefighter. There were times when things were a little tight because there were times my dad's job was not doing well. But as a child I never really noticed until I was in high school. I was always fed and always had clothes and a home. Although I grew up in a good home and had a good support system there were kids where I saw that they didn't have as stable as a home life. I believe that people should not be judged based on their class. 

In the article they talk about how they give the working class they would skip pages from the math text books because they found it to be too hard for these students. No matter anyones social class they should be getting an equal education and all students should be learning the same things in the same grades. For instance I know that private schools probably get a little more than someone in a public school. Although they are paying students should be getting the same amount of education and learning the same things throughout the country.
