[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it typical of English curricula across the country to read one book per quarter and for that book to potentially be 3-4 grade levels below grade level?[/quote] We are in a different district and there’s no differentiation in 9th grade ELA, they read The Book of Unknown Americans and then Romeo and Juliet and I forgot the very first book, I think it was a choice of Born a Crime or To Kill a Mockingbird[/quote] This sounds more challenging than the options MCPS has, particularly for the fall. Also, as PPs have stated, with the more challenging book like Romeo and Juliet, kids aren't necessarily reading the texts--they are watching the movie or listening to the audio. Pathetic.[/quote]
