Virginia mother blasts anti-Second Amendment writing sample 5th grade students were assigned to analyze
Fox News
A Fairfax County, Virginia, mother raised concerns about an assignment that prompted students to analyze an anti-Secondment Amendment persuasive essay sample.
Geissler told the principal directly in an email, "When I was in law school, our first assignment on persuasive writing - a skill necessary to be a lawyer - was on whether or not a misspelling in a deed was sufficient to pass title. Not exactly a sexy or emotional issue. We were not handed Roe v. Wade, the 2nd Amendment, or climate change, even though we were law students with significant education and life experience." Joshua Q. Nelson is a reporter for Fox News Digital.
Joshua focuses on politics, education policy ranging from the local to the federal level, and the parental uprising in education.
"The reason we were not given hot-button issues when first learning to write was because in order to learn persuasive writing, it is imperative that the skill not be clouded by the issue before the skill is learned," she continued in the email.
