[quote=Anonymous]You should ask what curriculum they are using. There is a good chance it is HMH into reading. I really think parents need to learn about this HMH and rail against it. It is terrible. It's just a fire hose of reading and assignments that is impossible to get through, so schools have to make judgment calls about what is going to get left out. So yes, please complain, without blaming teachers because it's not their choice. Also there is so much evidence that academic writing boosts reading scores that it's absurd to dispute it. Here is just one of a million articles you can find on it: https://www.edweek.org/teaching-learning/opinion-writing-directly-benefits-students-reading-skills/2020/01[/quote]
