[quote=Anonymous]The curriculum wasn't the problem in the old system. The problem was that MCPS didn't require rigorous enough tests and the instruction in math has always been hit or miss. In 2..0, the biggest problem is the curriculum. It is the most dull, uninspiring, boring and remedial approach one could have ever imagined. My first grader and his friends call it baby math. The older kids have the same disdain for it. The kids think its a joke. Its either ridiculously easy or ridiculously convoluted and stupid. Its easy to regurgitate and ironically builds more of the dreaded "rote" memorization than actually memorizing calculation patterns (which is useful). [/quote]
