[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I totally get not grading new material. But why not at least offer it? My kids’ teachers were giving new material the past 3 weeks. No they must stop, I guess. As for covering things this fall, how does that work when you move from ES to MS, or MS to HS?[/quote] And then what happens in the fall? Do they repeat all of that content and the kids who have already learned just review? They skip it and the kids who didn’t learn it now miss out? With all of the resources available out there outside of APS, it’s easily to find ways for your kids to learn new material if it’s a priority for you. Have at it.[/quote] We plan to. But I wonder— [b]are they really going to cover quarter 4 next fall? My older kid is in 5th grade. Are his middle school classes really going to cover the end of 5th grade?[/b] I mean, maybe they are. I just wonder. It’s not that hard for a parent to instruct an elementary school kid at home IF they have time. I just think APS is making a poor choice. [/quote] That's what the VDOE guidance said to do, yes.[/quote]
