Debate Is Not Just For Prep School Kids Anymore

Thanks to the National Debate Project, children who love to argue can now be a blessing.

Inner-city youths from poverty-stricken areas all over the country are given the opportunity to learn the fine art of debate because the program, says CNN.com. Now schools like Benjamin Mays High School in Atlanta can take on and take out debate teams from wealthy schools.

Don't just love hearing stories like these? At least someone is doing something for poor, yet intelligent students of America.

In fact, I feel that I should do something myself. Here is a list of organizations that you can check out to help ALL children get a chance to recieve the best education possible:

• Teaching for Change
• Cross City Campaign for Urban School Reform
• Institute for Education and Social Policy
• Fair Test
• Parents for Public Schools

[note: I skimmed over these organizations and they seem very legit to me, but it would be smart to do a little research on these oranizations before you get involved in any of their programs. After all, the Internet can be a extremely cruel mistress.]

Historically, if you're white and male and affluent, this is a game you play, but when you level the playing field, everybody wins.

Kids' Turn Central Has The Cure for Summertime Blues

I found a huge list of summer activities from Kids' Turn Central-a website, founded by Wendy Hogan, that vows to "give youth a safe place to talk, share and learn."

This summer, your kids can do a great deal of things such as:

Create a Garden

Learn How to Play Guitar

or....

Read a Book

Also.....

Schools across America is or will be closed for the summer, so it will be a little more difficult to find juicy education articles. But don't worry, Moon Man is adding new features for the summer. Now, there will be activity posts-postings that will inform you on fun activities, exciting clubs, and entertaining and educational events.

Computer Malunction Attempts To Destroy MOONMAN (And Fails)

The past few weeks have been long, stressful, and strenuous.

Due to a bizarre computer malfunction, Moon Man was forced to take a temporary hiatus. However, after finding the right tools I needed to weed out the sets of viruses and god knows what else, I am finally able to start up Moon Man again. Hopefully there won't be anymore goof-ups in the future.

Moon Man is back (for now).
