[quote=Anonymous]Ahhh, here we go again...... Please communicate with your child's teacher. They are full of information about 2.0 and their perspective of it. Mine said 2.0 isn't ready for prime time, but she does believe in the curriculum change. She is not appreciating the over zealous parents who are not understanding the paradigm shift. She's working 12 hour days to make sure the kids get what they need (i.e., she is actually planning for the kids). If you get a teacher who isn't adapting the curriculum for the kids, I think you have a problem. I am not thrilled about "P" being the top, but if the goal is your child learning and building each concept they have mastered, they have mastered, it is acceptable. I just remember as a kid wanting to do the best. If everyone get a "P" , then how does a kid find that desire to be the best? It's like giving a ribbon to every kid who shows up, but not rewarding the winner. It's aspiration to mediocrity.[/quote]
