textbook-based curriculum for kindergarten, and you are writing a letter
to the school board in protest of this new policy. In your letter,
define DAP, describe the benefits of DAP, and explain why you feel the
use of a textbook-based curriculum may be inappropriate. Describe
potential negative effects of this curriculum and how it is
developmentally inappropriate to literacy development. Recommend an
alternative approach to developing literacy skills. In your letter, use
the kindergarten standards from your state and the guidelines for DAP
described in the course text as well as in NAEYC resources.
The
paper should be two to three pages in addition to the title page and
the reference page. Use at least one scholarly reference in addition to
your text. Your paper should also be formatted according to APA style
