[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So why aren’t schools just switching to Science of Reading and calling it a day? [/quote] A lot of smaller ( ie not huge counties) public schools did a couple years ago. [/quote] Arlington’s APS moved to SoR in Fall 2022, as did Fairfax County’s FCPS. I am grateful to the NAACP for pressuring both to switch to curricula that work for ALL kids. I think APS did a better job with the transition, in part because they also are incorporating elements of the ED Hirsch “Core Knowledge” materials, which help students have the knowledge background to really comprehend what is being read. (FYI: “Core Knowledge” is unrelated to the term “Core Curriculum”, and also predates the “Core Curriculum.”)[/quote]
