[quote=Anonymous]My DC LOVED ELC (Enriched Literacy Curriculum) in 4th, as she was finally challenged after years of Benchmark with the novel studies, small group studies and the teacher was creative and really great in ELC. It was a separate class for advanced learners which really benefitted her. This year in 5th our school changed ELA to Amplify for everyone. There is no longer a pullout class and my DC is struggling with being engaged with the curriculum, pace of the curriculum being too slow and with her inattentive ADHD, has tuned out and grades have suffered. Enrichment doesn't seem to be happening. Have reached out to teacher but haven't gotten anywhere yet other than "it's a new curriculum and takes time." Will of course address at the upcoming parent conferences. DC's MAP scores are high and don't correlate with performance in ELA class at all. Any similar experiences? Very frustrated. Thanks in advance![/quote]
