[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If students in chemistry have to give up chemistry lab in favor of reading scientific writing about chemistry, somebody is doing it wrong. [/quote] Believe me, the Common Core "ratio police" will be out checking! This is an example of an unintended consequence.[/quote] No, I don't think so. BUt there will be end of year tests Language Arts such as the PARCC, and those tests will include not just fiction and poetry, but non fiction as well. And students who are proficient in reading non fiction will have more background knowledge and will be able to better read, understand, and show comprehension than those who have primarily been reading fiction.[/quote]
