[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are not allowed to assign homework over break in FCPS in elementary. It’s a big deal that it’s not allowed. Typing is supposed to be taught somewhat but there just isn’t time. Same for cursive. Ask the teacher, because they should have Type to Learn at home. I still do spelling the traditional way, but a lot of schools do word study, which I hate. A lot of teachers do cursive after SOLs. [/quote] If there is no time for cursive, typing, spelling or word study, why can't fcps just be up front about it. All of this is why I wish we had gone private. We just paid last summer to have someone teach our kids cursive and have had to sign our kids up for grammar and typing classes too. Days go by in school with no knowledge of what is being taught. No large class sizes either or special needs. Meanwhile the private schools fit all of this stuff into the school day. Makes me wonder.[/quote]
