[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote]Do you have any examples of books kids are reading in 9th grade English?[/quote] Texts are listed here: [url]https://docs.google.com/document/d/14XsG7HxnXcr5tO7u7HpE7I28XTur-dKuQmAkJ1T0z_I/edit[/url][/quote] Thanks! That looks pretty typical to me (e.g. Romeo and Juliet, Of Mice and Men)... so not too bad? But certainly not "advanced"; probably at least 25% of MCPS 9th graders would be up for more.[/quote] Ok, but they aren't actually reading those books. They might read excerpts from R&J or OM&M but they are not reading the book start to finish. [/quote] What is the deal with reading excerpts instead of entire books. And what happened to raising the bar, not lowering it to the LCD? Such mediocrity, mcps.[/quote]
