[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] while on average, kids from higher SES do read by end of K. [/quote] Reading by the end of k is one thing, the Common Core standards for K require much more than just reading. [/quote] Actually they don't require reading by the end of kindergarten. They require beginning to learn how to read. Or, anyway, I don't consider reading "emergent readers" to be really reading. MCPS actually used to expect a higher level of reading from kindergarteners at the end of the year than they do now that Maryland has adopted the Common Core standards. Further confirmation for the people on the Maryland Public Schools forum who insist that 2.0 has "dumbed down" MCPS, I suppose.[/quote]
