The programming committee at my school is looking at programs for next year and beyond.? The problem is, they chose two teachers to be on the committee and they have 3 years experience between them (all at this school).? When I expressed my concerns to the primary teacher on the committee she mentioned that they are thinking of keeping HM.? I know that I have a problem with 'boxed' programs because I don't believe that any one program meets all of ?the needs of our students, but I want to come with documentation to support my opinion; and my principal takes research over anecdotal information about how a program works in our classrooms.
