[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 5th grade AAP kid went from enjoying reading to telling me language arts is his least favorite part of the day :( I don’t know if it’s the age, the teacher, the curriculum, but this year has been really rough.[/quote] +1 my 6th grader who was an advanced reader now absolutely hates reading and LA. She also is worried about how she will do in honors English next year. [b]Her confidence has tanked.[/b][/quote] And here's the issue - moms of "advanced kids" are starting to realize that their children were actually very far behind where they should be. Just because your child was getting high comprehension and fluency scores doesn't mean that she was actually an advanced reader and writer, PP. Benchmark is actually digging in to literacy which is something that the previous "curriculum" never did.[/quote]
