[quote=Anonymous][quote] Exactly. I can tell you that it has already impacted my 5th grader very adversely. And since they are doing some assignments in a blog I can read his classmate's writing and it's also abysmal for the most part. Agreed. You know what has made me crazy? Starting around 6th grade, they do a lot of "peer editing." As a supplement to editing by the teacher, that's a fine idea. But one of my kids had a teacher who did nothing BUT let the kids edit each other. It was appalling. [/quote] Are you sure the teacher wasn't also asking for revisions?[/quote]
