[quote=Anonymous]Not saying the concepts are trivial. At this level the teachers are well trained enough to be able to cover them the proper way they should be taught. Just saying that they are covered but it is easy to miss if the student is not paying attention.

We are in Madison pyramid and have a close friend at Oakton pyramid and it is pretty much the same. I like to complain about FCPS as much as anyone here, lot of things they should be doing better, but I am pretty impressed with with actual teaching at least in AAP center schools. They absolutely cover the material and teach it the right way (number sense....MCT...).

I strongly suspect not paying attention is the main problem. This is one thing I ask when I go for a parent teacher meeting. Is my child paying attention in class? From several such meetings with different teachers, it is pretty obvious that this is a big problem.

If a child is not paying attention frequently for whatever reason, dont you think they would likely be falling behind? [/quote]
