[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait a gosh darn minute. They only read ONE of those? I read the refrigerator curriculum handout and it was not at all clear that the teacher only picks one. I already thought it was a light lift with two below grade level and A Separate Peace (which is a quick read). Good lord, MCPS is shortchanging our kids.[/quote] MCPS has been short-changing kids in English for a long time. It's such a shame, and also a pattern. They got rid of differentiated English in MS about ten years ago, I think? Then got rid of differentiated English in high school three years ago. Then got rid of ELC this year. Now they are seeking to make the Humanities magnets interest-based rather than criteria-based. They literally show no interest in kids if their gifts are in ELA/Humanities rather than STEM, and it is an enormous shame. [/quote]
