[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How could every 3rd and 4th grader POSSIBLY be ready to learn advanced math, when almost every child is BEHIND in math due to 1.5 years of no school? That is completely ridiculous. [/quote] I’m an ES teacher, but not at an E3 school (this is the first I’ve heard of it). We are supposed to give every student “access to rigor”. That means we use AAP curriculum such as Jacob’s Ladder, Socratic Seminar, M3 etc. We also use the Critical and Creative Thinking (CCT) lessons, but they don’t count as meeting the school board’s access to rigor goal. I get frustrated because the lessons are simply too difficult for most of our students. Some get very frustrated. Because they are too difficult we spend time during our CT meetings trying to adapt them and scaffold the lessons. I think we’d be better off focused on the “regular” curriculum and getting that in.[/quote] This is interesting. Thanks for sharing![/quote]
