[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS hasn't taught phonics in over a decade....maybe more. They are just now trying to return to that method once they realized what a grave mistake it was. Luckily, I thought my kid phonics myself before I enrolled him.[/quote] +1 and oh what a disaster it was. Half of MCPS third graders don’t read at grade level. This is crucial time of the switch from learning to read to reading to learn. Thank you Messrs Weast, Starr, and Smith. For Madam McKnight, the jury is still out[/quote] MCPS isn't comparable to privates and many kids struggled for many years in MCPS. Privates can kick kids out who don't preform well so it gives a very skewed viewpoint. Kids need support at home. Phonics doesn't work for all kids.[/quote]
