[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a lot of testing, but there is less rote memorization and direct teaching these days. Every day, kids are working on several group projects and are in small groups for instruction. Unfortunately public schools have worksheets instead of books and they tend to have fewer questions to answer than writing answers to questions in a book. The questions on the worksheets are engaging and involve critical thinking, but kids don't seem to get as much repetition as they used to. Maybe a good thing to keep children interested in school, but I see some kids falling behind.[/quote] Books are so 20th Century. The good schools have Ipads.[/quote]
