I didn't want to trust Politico or any mainstream or even alt-media to check this, I'd heard about it. So I went to the actual state board of education website and found the document. It's right there on page 5:
Quote:
SS.68.AA.2.3
Examine the various duties and trades performed by slaves (e.g., agricultural
work, painting, carpentry, tailoring, domestic service, blacksmithing,
transportation).
Benchmark Clarifications:
Clarification 1: Instruction includes how slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be
applied for their personal benefit.

That's for grade 6-8. Here's the link to the Bd. of Ed pdf doc:

Nowhere in the multi-page document does it mention anything about how students should be taught that female slaves were used as breed-mares for future generations of slaves, and that many of the domestic slaves were the result of rape by the master against the female slave. And yes that's definitely age-appropriate. Girls 6-8 grade are mostly menstruating and capable of getting pregnant if they're raped. Which does happen. Not often - but it does happen.
