[quote=Anonymous]6th grade AAP Teacher here… What I like… Concepts/Content teaching vs focusing on one genre at a time. Assessments are already made Heavier writing expectations What I don’t like -Word Study instruction is not rigorous especially for AAP. -Writing lessons are poor and are all prompt based. I do believe there should be a balance of essays vs creative writing. -Too many pieces. The kids literally could not do EVERYTHING written in teacher manual. -Lack of actual books being read. -Articles/Stories aren’t great an are all excerpts. -Kids hate LA and I have the most behavior issues during LA time due to this. With that being said, our SOL scores were very good, and I hope we have more flexibility next year to adjust to make it our own. [/quote]
