I did not say that they "have to".  I said that they should be allowed to choose that if the want to.  There's a huge difference.  They should not be downgraded by their administrators if they choose to use things that work for them.  This is called letting the teacher be a professional.  The teacher should not be a programmed robot.  Those are the worst teachers. [/quote]

Agreed. What we're seeing though is that in our public school things are "available" but the teacher has to put them all together. Every day. There is no suggested curriculum materials and no printed materials. So the teacher is spending endless hours at the copier. [b]I just think it makes things easier when there is a standard curriculum[/b] and teachers are allowed to choose things that work for them if needed. This way they don't have to make copies unless they want to.[/quote]

You are actually arguing AGAINST the first PP's point. The first PP does not want a standardized curriculum.[/quote]
