[quote=Anonymous]MCPS fails to realize that you don't build deeper understanding if you don't know the basics. This holds true in any subject or field. They also seem to not realize that the thought processes and even areas of the brain that involve math are different from writing. Verbal and visual information is also processed different from writing. They seem to think if they can get kids to regurgitate in writing the verbal lessons they are giving that somehow this will lead to deeper understanding. Boy, it certainly does not. Its not that hard to teach math and many other countries do it just fine. I honestly don't understand why MCPS educators are so idiotic about math. Its embarrassing. [/quote]
