[quote=Anonymous]There are obvious problems with writing instruction in America's public schools, and a large corpus of academic lit shining a light on the issues. For the lay person, I suggest Griffith and Duffett, Reading and Writing Instruction in Public Schools. Writing classes are generally too big to work well, and writing teachers, particularly younger ones, insufficiently paid, trained and supported. The focus is too much on creative writing vs. evidence based. Hardly the end of the world to stick with decent public schools like those in Arlington if families can supplement for writing. https://fordhaminstitute.org/national/research/reading-and-writing-instruction-americas-schools Where do you find the time and energy to slam random posters who make valid points?
