Sydney Vasquez In Praise of The F Word

– In her title, Sherry refers to flunking as the "F word." What point is she making by doing this?

         Sherry is referring to flunking students as the F word. The point she is trying to get across is not allowing students to just skate by high school with not really identifying the actual issue at hand. Without requiring students to really focus on the coursework and master it, it is basically just cheating them and also the employers of the job field they will have to step into. Sherry used her own as an example with an English teacher. It seems as if her son was not really paying attention in the class and also chatting with his friends – instead of using her suggestion, the teacher explained to her she will just fail him instead. This technique in my opinion is very useful. Students do not matter what background they come from, need to have motivation to complete the coursework to further their education propertly. with an English professor.  It seemed as though her son was not really paying attention in the class and also chatting with his friends – instead of using her suggestion, the teacher explained to her she will just fail him instead.

– What does Sherry mean in paragraph 10 when she says, "Flunking a regular policy has just as much merit today as it did two generations ago"?

               Sherry is saying that she believes that no matter how many generations go by, flunking is still a positive teaching tool that is seen to be effective. It should be used as a technique to explain to students that they are more than capable of completing the work placed in front of them by their teacher. It seems to be that some teachers have gotten into the room of being more compassionate to all the other things students supposedly have going on at home, but students should also use that the motivation to further their education and lessen the possibility of failure.
