[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s unfortunate that so many kids didn’t learn today. We were thrilled to have an inclement weather day today. My kids built lego structures, read books, slid down our hill in the ice, shoveled neighborhood sidewalks, worked on Lexia and dreambox, and helped me bake some muffins. The way I see it, they learned about architecture, reading, science (playing with velocity on the sled), improved their citizenship skills, and did some math. Not bad for a snow day. [/quote] My kids did this and comparable things for the three day weekend and every other weekend and day off in January and February. They don't need more unstructured time. They need to be taught actual content. We've already surrendered so much instructional time with Mondays off, shorter days and repeat closures.[/quote]
