The article I read today was "Math in life " by James H. The article talks about what teachers should be teaching in math and in any other subject as well. Mr. Holman mainly talked about what he should teach in math that would help students, mainly seniors and college students, as they go further on into life. Some suggestions he put out there were how to handle taxes, credit card interests, mortgages, etc. . I personally think that math teachers should be teaching students these things because taxes, for example, are important to know how to handle. Many young adults look towards there parents to help them in situtations like this. But as you grow older adults know that you need to figure these things out on your own. That is why I think it is a good idea to teach this in classes so every child understands the concept of what they are doing.
The schools in all the other states or countries should do this because it would help make things eaiser and less confusing.
So I agree that we should teach things like how to hand credit cards and money.
