[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] I noticed they both benchmark and amplify both have a a balance between fiction and non-fiction and when they are not fiction text they tend to focus on science and social studies texts. I think the idea from the curriculum writers is that it helps kids build their background knowledge. [/quote]
