[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mississippi has shown the way. Direct instruction using tried and true methods with clear science (example: Phonics), avoid fads (whole language, balanced literacy, and other Lucy Calkins crap). Teach kids he material directly, do not think they will learn by osmosis.[/quote] They also hold students back in 3rd grade if they are not on grade level in math and reading. We need to return to not allowing kids to advance in school if they are not meeting standards. [/quote] Agree. We eventually hold kids back. Why do it at age 14 and not age 8? Fourteen year olds have feelings too. If we're going to do it, do it when interventions are more effective. [/quote]
