[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm super late to listening to "Sold a Story," but MCPS was mentioned in it and specifically the Benchmark curriculum that Lucy Calkins pushed. Having listened to the podcast, and knowing MCPS used this flawed reading curriculum, who in MCPS is being held accountable for the harm caused by this failed instruction? Black and brown literacy rates are significantly down and have been even pre-pandemic, and I'm wondering how much of that is attributable to Calkins/Benchmark's flawed reading methodology?[/quote] Mcps was using A very good phonics program (really great reading) in conjunction with benchmark because the benchmark phonics program was so anemic. Anecdotally, I know a lot of teachers who are really sad that really great reading is going away because it was a very popular [/quote]
