[quote=Anonymous]To answer OP's original question "Does anyone like Curriculum 2.0" -

I'm sure the administrators who are writing the new curriculum love it because they are getting paid to write it.

I'm sure the people (ie. Staff Development Resource personnel) love it because it gives them something to justify their salary and keeps them employed.

I would say by looking at most of the posts in the 3 threads on this forum that parents HATE 2.0.  Who would want their children to be subjected to being a guinea pig population for a curriculum that is still being written and hasn't been tested or validated?

Kids in 3rd grade at my son's school hate it.  They used to be part of the accelerated class.  Now they have huge chunks of time with nothing to do and are not learning anything relevant or new.  They have to sit once they demonstrate state standards and wait for the rest of the class to catch up.

It would be great if administrators like Starr would do random pop ins at schools to see what life is like on a day to day basis for our children.  They are out of touch with reality if they believe their own propaganda that teachers, students, and parents love the new curriculum.  [/quote]
