[quote=Anonymous]I have friends with kids in the same grade at a range of schools across Mont County and it seems that the curriculum is very similar, though homework varies a lot, as does some of the instruction. For example, my child's school doesn't 'teach' spelling -- no spelling words, no spelling tests, etc. They are supposed to "learn it on their own, through integration". A friend -- same grade, different school -- has weekly spelling lists and tests since 1st grade. On the flip side, my child had homework in K, and a lot of it. Other kids in K we know had no homework. Homework in 1-3rd grades have varied greatly across schools as well. That's been our experience. Not sure it really answers your question, though.[/quote]
