[quote=Anonymous]1985. We were definitely taught to sound out words (anyone remember the Letter People?) and I remember illustrating and "writing" stories -- specifically the teacher encouraging me to write more than just the first letter of each word. There were reading groups, where we'd go around the circle and read part of a story. For math, I remember making graphs as a class and maybe some addition worksheets. There was circle time, morning and afternoon recess, a corner with lots of blocks, and maybe some housekeeping stuff. I remember some 'testing' - at one point I had to count as high as I could (and was very proud to make it to 100). My son starts K next year and I'm curious to see how much things have changed.[/quote]
