[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you really arguing that 4th and 5th graders in DCPS are actually just fine and the DC CAS is at fault for making it appear as if their are abysmal rates of students performing on grade level? You are perfectly happy with the level of teaching and learning in most upper elementary dcps classrooms? [/quote] different poster here. From what I see and hear, the problem is "teaching to the test" - i.e. lessons are overly aligned with the DC-CAS. A competent teacher who is forced to teach limited content will not be as effective as she could be otherwise. and a less competent teacher can look pretty good at the end of the year if successful in getting her kids to bubble in the correct answers.[/quote]
