[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Devil's advocate for the test.  FCPS needs someone or something external to show them the current situation is not working.  I think at our school it has revealed that across the board the curriculum has gotten soft.  Many kids are testing below where they should on iReady.  As a parent, I think the curriculum at my kids' school is very, very weak.  One of my kids picks things up super fast so he gets all of it.  My other kid needs repetition, reinforcement and explicit teaching versus implicit and the school does none of those things with math or language arts.  And it shows in iReady.  The curriculum is weak compared to many publics across the country and iReady is given nationally so its metrics for success are national standards.  FCPS is lagging way behind my friends' school districts in other areas and the iReady has shown it.  [/quote]
I agree completely.  Even in the AAP forum, a lot of posters said that their AAP children were at or below grade level in iready.  Of course, those parents still seemed to think that their kids needed to be in their own special gifted program and segregated from the gen ed kids.   :roll:

It really seems like the majority of parents are pissed off about iready because they don't like seeing that their children are at or below grade level.  [/quote]
