[quote=Anonymous]My kid is one of those naturally gifted readers and writers who just "gets it." And I hated that he spent his first two years at a LC workshop school. Just absolute garbage. His writing improved by leaps and bounds this year, now that we're at a CKLA school. His reading was always exceptionally good (because we did phonics at home), but his writing was a struggle. Now he writes constantly. He hated the workshop model he's a perfectionist who gets really frustrated when he knows he's spelling a word incorrectly but his teacher wouldn't help him figure out the correct way to spell it. Now he's encouraged to look up words and ask for confirmation in order to spell it right. He's so much happier, and his writing is so much better.[/quote]
