[quote=Anonymous]Somehow I read that schools these days were getting rid of teaching background knowledge. But the problem is that background knowledge is helpful to all things and the higher SES kids are getting the background knowledge at home - so it's really backfiring in trying to level the playing field. I forget where I read that. If I can find it - I'll link. This is one sort of similar idea but definitely not what I read before: https://www.chalkbeat.org/2019/9/16/21108839/want-better-readers-spend-less-time-teaching-kids-to-find-the-main-idea-knowledge-gap-author-natalie[/quote]
