[quote=Anonymous]Calkins is very popular in NoVa. Not sure why, but it's no different than most of the other curriculums and methods. It's considered "balanced literacy," which is really a new name for whole language, as most teachers today have never learned how to teach phonics. Teachers have absolutely no choice about what kind of method to use. When I was a teacher they would come into the classroom randomly and if you weren't following whatever the flavor of the month reading fad was, then you got written up.[/quote]
