[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is K not developmentally appropriate? It is school, where they are supposed to be learning. It is not preschool and playtime.[/quote] It could be more play based learning rather than standard based etc. [/quote] Why? It is supposed to be about learning the foundation work for upper grades. Preschool is for play. Hold your kid back if they still need play. Or, your preschool didn't prepare your child for learning. We found K-2 painfully slow and not academic enough.[/quote] I think you can learn the foundations through play. I'm not really complaining about K now, just saying what some people think about the K curriculum. I would be ok with a more play based curriculum but I did not redshirt because of it. [/quote]
