[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about no available textbooks that correspond to the curriculum being taught, so kids can't really review?![/quote] Good teachers don't use textbooks, because they realize that the vast majority of today's kids do not learn from copying problems over from a book the way we did 20+ years ago. I go to training after training trying to get old school teachers to wean away from using textbooks. They are a crutch for people who do not know how to follow a pacing guide and come up with activities and lessons that really demonstrate understanding. Parents need textbooks. Kids don't.[/quote]
