I’ll never forget being in a cvs in Richmond VA and a guy IN THE OTHER AISLE said hello to me and got offended that I didn’t immediately say hello back

Reply to Any MA elementary teachers in here? Or parents of elementary aged kids learning to read? by GreatStrengthOfFeet
My school in newton used a combo of readers workshop and fountas and pinnell AND wilson…it turned out teachers didn’t like teaching phonics so they stuck with the familiar and wilson was mostly reserved for tier 2?? So the curriculum was there but I guess the training wasn’t bc teachers didn’t really seem to know how to use it. I saw a lot of predictable texts in first grade and a lot of sight words in kindergarten

What’s your district? I’m trying to find a place to teach in mass that doesn’t use readers workshop/f&p. Seems like it’s still v popular here

As far as I know mcas isn’t used to assess the students it’s used to assess the schools so they want it to be standardized, not saying it’s good or bad
