[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] And when would that be? [b]Elementary schools used to be called 'grammar' schools for a reason.[/b] Yes, you can't expect a first grader to understand the concept of irregular verbs, but 4th and 5th graders are developmentally advanced to be able to learn grammar and spelling. Why do you think your 'gifted' 9th graders can't name the parts of speech? Because they haven't been properly taught in upper ES/MS.[/quote] What was the reason?[/quote] There was a lot of emphasis on grammar. They had no spell checkers at the time. [/quote]
