[quote=Anonymous]I had understood that APS was switching to a phonics curriculum this year, but my kid reports a great deal of emphasis on sight words. This matches the worksheets she brings home. Lots of sight word worksheets. I had also understood that APS was dropping Lucy Culkins, but my kindergartener is still doing writer's workshop and still bringing home the same assignments my older daughter did in kindergarten. That doesn't seem to have changed. Both Dreambox and Lexia are one of the centers the kids rotate to during math and language arts. I was annoyed at the first half of the year because the teacher was always assigned to the Lexia/Dreambox station to help the kids use the program. This left no teacher available for actual instruction. Now, at the end of the year, the kids do Dreambox and Lexia independantly but it took until after X-mas break to get to this point. [/quote]
