Wow you would have thought the world was going to end. The anger, the worry, the Sturm und Drang. No field testing, either. They were just dropped on us. Are you serious? Everybody hated it. My kids were in school when it changed. It was a sea change--and not for the positive. Teachers began teaching to the test, practicing for the test, etc.etc. It was a rough transition, but after the first few years, people adapted, and I think instruction was much improved as a result. [/quote] Strongly disagree. In fact, a neighbor brought this up today. My youngest was in third grade--his experience was quite different from the oldest.[/quote]
