[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think you understand. The teachers are being told how long to spend on each subject. When I had 1.5 hours of LA, I was told that I need to pull reading groups. Schools are so focused on Reading and Math. It was a few years ago that writing started becoming more of a priority. Forget SS and Science. We get 30-45 mins a day to teach both. Teachers have no say. There needs to be a whole revamp of education in this country so we can teach all subjects and not just focus on Reading and Math. [/quote]

Because students come in not prepared to read and don't read at home and don't have homework anymore. It's all political. Kids who come from immigrant families or poor families can't supervise homework like even reading a book, so now kids don't read books at home. They read books in class. Immigrant families don't know the language, so more time on reading than native speakers. Special needs kids may need more time so more time helping them than decades before. Foreign language and STEM classes take over science and social studies time. Also political.[/quote]
