[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS is erring on the side of too much edtech. Unless you are a parent witnessing this firsthand, it’s hard to see how awful it really is. The current 8th graders, for example, have been carrying laptops around for years and years. They were not taught phonics, vocabulary, grammar, spelling, and have not held or read textbooks. They have generally poor penmenship and money and clock skills because these things were ‘deemphasized’ during COVID and were never filled back in once school started up again. There is seemingly no plan to catch them up on de-emphasized skills. [/quote] Yep. Sounds like my current 9th grader. Its horrible. My college sophomore got a completely different education.[/quote]
