[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is too much teaching to the test. That’s for sure. All material has to be crammed into 3 quarters so the fourth quarter is review for the SOLs and take the SOLs. The reading has become ‘read the passage’ and ‘answer the multiple questions’ below. [/quote] "No Child Left Behind" was well intentioned, but has been an utter failure. My kids were in school when it started. With SOL's came a "sea change" in instruction. And, sadly, test scores probably would have been better if they had continued teaching as before. Lots of fun learning activities were eliminated. [/quote]
