[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We moved here from Massachusetts, and have had the same experience. The magnet programs in the elementary and middle school are pretty much the same as the standard programs in our Massachusetts town. [/quote] Same here (from Illinois)[/quote] Curious about the typical reading list for an advanced 6th grade student in MA or IL. [/quote] PP from IL here. I can’t remember what they read in 6th, and DC is at overnight camp. I can report back in a couple of weeks. I’m pretty sure DC had already read many of the books before they read them in class, but the assignments were deeper. Overall, in reading/writing, our IL schools focused more on anysis (reading) and content (writing), while our MCPS schools seem to focus more on content (reading) and mechanics (writing). So the work here feels more superficial. [/quote]
