[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a bit concerning that going back to the way we taught reading and writing for decades is considered a “new initiative.” Did teachers not learn any of this in school?[/quote] The younger Millennial teachers did not learn it. Most of them learned to read and write with the Lucy Calkins method too, which is why they can't teach phonics now even if APS changes the curriculum. Listen to the "Sold a Story" podcast-- it was eye-opening for me and exactly what has been going on with APS.[/quote]
