[quote=Anonymous]I'm the teacher who wrote about not teaching any real content in social studies in ES. I am an ESOL teacher so I do teach grammar and grade for spelling and punctuation. Apparently I am the only one because when I read grades work on hallway bulletin boards with tons of spelling errors in upper ES, it makes me angry. These students are being shortchanged. Our district loves to brag about higher order thinking skills but who cares about that if students can't spell or produce basic grammatically correct sentences? My kid is in a Catholic school now and I want to kiss his teachers for finally holding him accountable for spelling, grammar and handwriting. [/quote]
