[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid's 3rd grade teacher was talking at open house last night about how the latest writing curriculum was dumbed down relative to what MCPS has in the past but that she and the school reading specialist were trying to figure out how to supplement it. It's sad.[/quote] The new curriculum?[/quote] The new ES ELA curriculum is so much better than what they had before. -NP[/quote] My kid's teacher (who has 20 plus years at MCPS) sounds like she disagrees--at least for how it teaches writing. [/quote] The new curriculum is aligned to standards and is rigorous. Teachers who have been teaching for decades may not like it for that very reason, as neither was true of prior curricula. It is going to be a tough transition, both for teachers and students. [/quote]
