[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So far I’m liking what I see (third grade parent). There seems to be a good focus on vocab and spelling and engaging readings (Alice in Wonderland was the latest). I do kind of wish there were actual books (I remember reading Number the Stars in 3rd grade growing up which was my first exposure to the Holocaust.) but it seems better than what they had last year. I can imagine kids who aren’t good readers may be struggling more though [/quote] The third grade reading of Wind in the Willows was more or less the "actual" book. They cut a couple chapters (Piper at Gates of Dawn and Wayfarers All, I believe) but not much. Looking ahead, I wish there was more of that in later units which are mostly of non-fiction, science or social studies, rather than literature. We've cut science and social studies so much, though, that I guess it's good to get it anywhere you can.[/quote]
