[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was surprised at the amount of "free independent reading" in my dc FCPS elementary school. A whole hour each morning and another 20 minutes in the afternoon. That's a lot of instructional time. [/quote] Yes! Same with my kid and we’re not in DMV. This is happening across the country. It’s absolutely absurd. I’m horrified at what our school districts and principals have done to education in the last few years. Are there any studies or articles that have been done on this subject raising how this worsens inequity? It’s important it’s framed that way because (1) it’s devastatingly true and (2) that really is an area of concern for school administrators. [/quote]
