[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You do know that in many districts teachers are told exactly what and how to teach and have zero autonomy to make these kinds of decisions on their own, right?[/b][/quote] This is a pretty big myth. Teachers are told what to teach (standards) but how they do so is largely up to them. Yes, certain principals might want to see specific methods employed such as Daily 5 or Reading Workshop, but for the most part teachers come up with everything on their own. [/quote] This is most definitely true in many Title One schools especially. Our every minute is scheduled and we must teach our programs (Fundations, Wit & Wisdom, Eureka Math) to fidelity. Our schedules are the same across many grade levels and we have to be on the same lessons on the same days. We always have visitors coming around to "check."[/quote]
