I also envy the teacher that has five weeks to focus on one reading strategy! I completely agree that we are often spread too thin, rushing to cover too much material in too little time. I've been worrying a lot this year that I am giving my students more information than they can handle and not really devoting enough time to developing those concepts. In trying to keep up with the curriculum, sometimes it feels like they are on information overload. I especially feel this way about my struggling learners that need many exposures to new concepts. I would love to see our curriculum focus on fewer concepts, allowing us to slow down and go further in depth!
