[quote=Anonymous]13:36 Which classes does FCPS even use textbooks for? Is this a big issue? I keep hearing there aren't any, but only have a 3rd grader. I do not like the non-text book way of teaching because for example in my child's language arts class, everyone now reads a different book and talks about it instead of everyone reading the same story. With a textbook nowadays, I can look up exactly what they're studying and even buy it for myself. In addition, my child gets dittos all the time. They are always black and white and uninteresting. Textbooks come with more engaging workbooks nowadays. I see them in the local parochial school. The parochial school has lots of other resources, but also has textbooks. The teacher can either use dittos or have the kid answer questions from the workbook or write down answers on paper from the textbook.[/quote]
