[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child regularly wrote 1000 word essays in global humanities (HIGH) and the American History equivalent but that’s with an accelerated cohort unlike “advanced” English which is general eduction for all. For English, so far it seems like a lot of multiple choice tests on prefixes and reading comprehension of texts assigned, but my kids’ English teacher last year assigned a lot more writing so I guess it depends on how much unpaid time they’re willing to put in to correct all the written work.[/quote] Length does not equal rigor, especially from a middle schooler. But I agree with your point in general that kids need practice.[/quote] The PP did not say that length was equal to rigor, but feel free to argue against arguments no one is making :roll: [/quote]
