[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you like Ancient Greece, you’d like CKLA better. That curriculum does better on ancient civs for background knowledge in earlier grades. Benchmark doesn’t touch on it till grade 5 or 6. If you look at the scope sequence, some of the units are very disjointed while others are more cohesive.[/quote] See, this is why I think the person here that is bashing Benchmark over and over again works for a competitor.[/quote] Not PP. MCPS switched from Benchmark to CKLA and the posters over on the MCPS board seemed thrilled. APS uses CKLA. There are other knowledge based curricula that FCPS could have picked that are allowed under the new VA law (Wit & Wisdom comes to mind), but I don't think you have to work for CKLA - which is based on a free curriculum by the way! - to think that what's working elsewhere might work here.[/quote]
