[quote=Anonymous]Wow. Great post. I would say don’t forget HOW curricula is often selected - not by rigor but by bribery. Just look at the Curriculum 2.0 scandal in MCPS, the Discovery Channel bribery scandal in MCPS, the Lucy Calkins scandal in APS... there is real money in choosing a curricula and not enough oversight. (Making sure the latest science of learning is factored in). The evidence is clear on phonics - yet so many schools continue to parrot whole word. I would spend some time as well focusing on teacher training - these hair brained ideas are getting their start in these misguided graduate schools of ‘education.’[/quote]
