[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we switch the blame from students to [b]educators who defended Lucy Calkins and crappy curriculums[/b] - everyone from teachers who bought into it to administrators who selected and enforced the programs. Shame on all K-8 educators who rolled their eyes when parents complained. [/quote] I'm a teacher, and I NEVER defended Lucky Calkins. However, it isn't teachers who make decisions about curriculum, and I/we had no choice if we wanted to remain employed. There is a vast, bloated, many-tiered administrative team, many of whom have limited time/interest in actual classrooms, who are making these calls and ramming this nonsense through from the top down.
