[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]EC is 1-2 grades above level. It is not appropriate for everyone. [/quote] It’s also silly because if ELC is 1-2 grades above level, and Advanced English in middle school is on-level for all, you are essentially teaching at 6th-7th grade level for 4 years in a row. [/quote] What’s weird is that many of the texts used in Marking Period One ELC for fourth grade are not above grade level at all. For example, the students are reading Junior Great Books from the grade four workbook. But I suppose it makes sense when you think about the fact that the curriculum is supposed to be enrichment not acceleration. [/quote]
