[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our K-2 back to school night said they are using Benchmark…[/quote] Along with RGR...try and keep up. [/quote] You do realize that Benchmark sucks not just because of the phonics, right? MCPS needs a content-rich curriculum. There are much better options.[/quote] Content rich how? Benchmark has leveled readers, books for read aloud that schools can even get for groups of students, novel studies, text for kids to write in to practice skills. How much more content do they need?[/quote] Compare it with what the Core Knowledge foundation offers—we have been supplementing with their free curriculum for years so that our kids actually develop the background knowledge they need to succeed. That is the type of curriculum MCPS should be adopting. [/quote] It all just seems very subjective.[/quote]
