[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It weights towards kids that have tutors, though. If 90 percent of the kids only learn what is taught in class but 10% are wealthier and have tutors who know what is on the test, those 10% are bound to have 6 weeks learning advantage on the test. [/quote] Actually class pacing guides are weighted to what is covered most heavily on exams. And teachers are given instruction to understand class/grades standards so they can ensure that the greater majority of material is covered prior to exams. Lastly MCAP is a state exam. If folks want more material to be covered before the testing window the solution would be to change the calendar.[/quote] What happens for the month after MCAP? Preview of next year standards material? Parties? [/quote]
