[quote=Anonymous]APS does not use textbooks but that doesn’t mean there is no curriculum. The curriculum is the standards of learning SOLs. They use a variety of resources to teach the SOLs. For reading it’s a bit in flux as they transition from Lucy calkins to a science of trading based program. At the kinder level schools use heggerty phonemic awareness, Lucy Calkins phonics, reading and writing, and handwriting without tears. Expect a transition district wide in the next 2ish years to something like fundations. In math the district uses some math expressions and some district made resources to teach the SOLs. In upper elementary there is a science textbook and also resources such as generation genius and mystery science. But no there are not textbooks and workbooks for all subjects at all levels.[/quote]
