Not true, unless they are talking about that it is the only one they have recently created that is aligned to common core. Our school uses Treasures by McGraw-Hill and it is aligned with CCSS, so is their math. All canned reading programs have more elements than you could use, the writing is always pretty weak, and it's all very mundane. I miss the days of whole language when we taught using quality literature and chapter books.

There is NO way to do everything in the plan even if you only taught reading all day every day!
