[quote=Anonymous]Can't speak for charters but remember that DCPS has only just this year finally (re)defined its Learning Standards. The textbooks that it has relied on, and which are still in circulation, are not aligned with those standards. So teachers should actually be commended for not relying solely on those textbooks but instead pulling in content that truly is aligned with the learning standards and outcomes to be achieved to devise their lesson plans. Affirming that going by a textbook is indicative of the existence of a curriculum is putting the cart before the horse. The curriculum and learning standards come first and the textbook is chosen accordingly. (I hope, and believe, Basis does that.) This is where you can find DCPS' learning standards by grade level: http://dcps.dc.gov/portal/site/DCPS/menuitem.06de50edb2b17a932c69621014f62010/?vgnextoid=3e7d112f62c32210VgnVCM100000416f0201RCRD&vgnextchannel=22aba12cbf242210VgnVCM100000416f0201RCRD [/quote]
