[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see how they could have a new curriculum in place by next year. Are they going to be putting an RFP out now?[/quote]

They have about 12 elementary schools piloting the Benchmark 2022 edition this year.  I think they're hoping it solves all of the problems we have with the 2018/19(?) version of Benchmark most of us are stuck teaching right now.  I absolutely HATE Benchmark![/quote]

I don’t want to burst your bubble but we are doing the “new” benchmark at my school. It is just as terrible as the previous version.[/quote]

What's the difference between old and updated version? [/quote]

the new one is supposed to also teach phonics. But it sounds like it is not nearly as good as RGR. I really hope that MCPS uses RGR at all schools next year. It sounds like they may have an altogether new curriculum though, and maybe there will be no Benchmark at all. (That would be great; it sounds like teachers, students, and parents alike dislike Benchmark.)[/quote]
