[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The acronym is the least worst part of this evolution over the past 20 years. Whats really terrible is the shift away from teaching any creativity, the arts in any depth, writing, literature and history. My kids are at nw dcps schools that have more or less eliminated reading full books. [b]My kid in AP lang is finally reading a couple books, but it’s mostly texts.[/b] Writing is taught like a math formula. Research is nonexistent. Schools used to have full orchestras and band- now you have to go to an outside program or an arts school. [/quote] What does this mean, texts? [/quote]
