[quote=Anonymous]I have a first grader in DCPS, and I agree with the above posters that two weeks of movies is completely unacceptable. No one is arguing for tons of new material, tests, etc., but the are plenty of fun, unstructured activities that can be a good wind down for the year instead of hours of drooling in front of a screen. What about math puzzlers, board games, reading and acting out books, more recess? Our teacher made a treasure hunt for the kids during which they helped her pack up her classroom and is doing a fun intro to fractions using different edible materials. A show or two here or there is fine, but not for two weeks straight. I would certainly rather have my kid play Sorry or Uno than watching a movie. [/quote]
