[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is an improvement over the previous curriculum though. I think people are missing just how bad and devalued ELA had gotten.[/quote] Improved how?[/quote] They're now reading fiction, at least one whole book and the books are mostly grade level.[/quote] Deal was doing way more than this before. At least two entire novels, a full play, and a novel in poem form. All grade level. In 8th grade my kidread Call of the Wild, Raisin in the Sun, Lord of the Flies, and one other complete book I can't think of right now. In 7th grade he read Animal Farm and three other books I can't think of right now. This is a downgrade! [/quote]
