[quote=Anonymous]To the PP with the "overly formulaic" writing practice -- this is perfect for MCPS, which is teaching thru their BCRs on math and reading assessments, an *extremely formulaic* way of writing. Even my very advanced vocabulary, high reading, strong writer daughter had trouble with BCRs when she transferred to MCPS. I had to literally sit down with the BCR rubric and teach her what the response formula was. Once I did that she improved. My son has writing/language diagnoses and also has trouble with BCRs. In math particularly, what helps is getting a sample "good answer" to the math BCRs. Also a "word bank" as part of the BCR answer space should be given every time. And, the child has to have enough room to write, and separate paper to "brainstorm" or organize thoughts. [/quote]
