[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teacher, I'm happy to hear that is the curriculum that we are adopting. It should teach more content (science/social studies) and I've heard good things about it. My question is are we keeping Really Great Reading?[/quote] Why is a reading curriculum teaching content? Shouldn’t it be teaching things like decoding, spelling, and other reading skills? Science and SS content should be taught in those classes. MCPS is such a joke[/quote] Because it gives kids things to write and read about. How often at work do you have to write an essay with zero content? You don't. You write about facts and ideas. So in CKLA they introduce ideas that the kids read about (reading comprehension + vocab), analyze, and the write about (composition + spelling).[/quote]
