[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS needs to replace this awful tool. Students and teachers alike hate it. Students find the readings uninteresting and are not at all inspired. There is no independent reading time in class anymore which students also hate. Students feel they have to interpret readings in the exact same manner, no room for diversity of thought. Students find the questions really confusing. In conclusion, benchmark really really sucks. FCPS do better. [/quote] I said this last year and was pilloried for it here. The defenders jumped into action, screaming how their child’s reading scores actually improved. [b]Thankfully we moved on to the middle school where they are not using Benchmark. [/b][b]My child’s love of reading has finally returned - her class did a book club. [/b]And my child is finally reading independently again after a whole year off.[/quote][/quote]
