[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my children has never actually had a spelling test on FCPS. [/quote] The only spelling tests my kids have ever had in FCPS were the DSAs given at the beginning and (at least sometimes) end of the year. Doubt every ES does those, of course.[/quote] Sincere question-does that concern you as a parent? How are schools tracking of children know how to spell without spelling tests? [/quote] Yes it concerns me. For years I taught them spelling at home. Now we're switching to private. The language arts curriculum in FCPS wasn't the primary driver of that decision, but it was a negative in the "keep the kids in FCPS" column.[/quote]
