[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LA has been a joke and our biggest disappointment with our AAP child. I can’t imagine how bad it is going to be watered down even further [/quote] I don’t think it will be watered down. The kids will finally have reading, writing, grammar and spelling. It will just be very scripted and old school with little differentiation unless you are below. [/quote] At least they now will be teaching reading, writing, grammar and spelling. Colleague says his DC still can’t spell worth a hoot, despite getting top grades in AAP and in MS/HS within FCPS. It became a big issue for his DC once in college, and competing with students who had been taught all of those things with direct instruction before college.[/quote] Yes. The kids will be finally getting direct instruction. It will just be a one size fits all approach that avid readers will not enjoy. [/quote] PSA: Your avid reader still needs to learn the basics. I have seen a lot of children "reading above grade level" that can't even pronounce the words they are reading and certainly can't spell them.[/quote] I hate to admit it, but I was this kid in high school and it was embarrassing once we started doing read aloud :([/quote]
