[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a parent. I have 2 kids, one has experienced the MCPS curriculum pre 2.0 and another is going through 2.0. The starkest difference has been in how Math has been taught. The standards have fallen to such an extent that there is no way I would not intervene and teach my child at home. My kids are not guinea pigs,. [/quote] Writing instruction however has improved, Imo.[/quote] I do not have any problems with the Writing instruction. However, Math instruction is subpar. Considering that US was lagging behind other nations in STEM, I am aghast at what has been served up. In the long run, the high SES and the usual overachievers will continue to supplement and enrich outside of school. It is going to make the achievement gap wider and more difficult to bridge.
