[quote=Anonymous]The irony in ALL of this is that MCPS gives out SO MANY standardized testing days but the teachers never really give any tests.  This new curriculum has removed vocabulary, removed spelling tests, removed weekly math tests, and forget how to test ANYTHING in language arts.

Kids need to LEARN how to take tests. How to proofread, how to look for errors, how to process of elimination on multiple choice, and how to manage testing time.

My oldest went to private middle school and they had study skills class, executive functioning class, speech, writing, and grammar, etc... in a way that MCPS does not.  They have the basics of basics and there is no progression of learning.  I mean even the sequence of math is terrible.

Exit cards and 3 to 7 point quizzes that can be retaken is not how middle school should be graded.  No one is learning.

They bore the younger kids in math so young and then try to progress them too fast in middle school. Only kids keeping up are ones with very involved families helping or tutors. ES kids need honors classes.  SO sick of the new way of only give extra by 4th grade.  Some K students know all basic and math and some can't speak English or barely know how to count.  How do you teach them the same?  I miss the starting in 1st grade there are levels of math. [/quote]
