[quote=Anonymous]It's really lame how there are people disparaging the "disgusting" teacher who "love" Calkins. Do you not understand that teachers are responsible for covering whatever material and programs their administration decides? It has nothing to do with what they "love" or what they personally believe in. I teach phonics to my special ed elementary students every day, we work on handwriting, we work on spelling, we work on word and sentence structure, etc., but I have friends who teach in the same setting who are not allowed to teach phonics at all. Your beef is with the higher ups at the district who made those curriculum decisions. Yelling at teachers is like screaming at the checkout person because you disagree with a national chain's return policy - a waste of time.[/quote]
