[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS GT-LD program is AWFUL! Besides the fact it was not challenging, one of my daughters teachers encouraged her to draw a comic instead of writing a paper (which is what she wanted to do!) [/quote] Which GT/LD middle school? Do you have any other examples of poor teaching methods? Because making comics is actually a creative exercise in itself. It requires good spatial planning, drawing skills, the ability to compress a storyline into frozen body movement and short, focused text. You have to edit your writing down to the bones and know what to keep. A good comic is hard to do. Perhaps the teacher wished to encourage those skills in your daughter? [/quote]
