[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is just a vent… so apparently the kids who are ‘advanced’ in reading based on the MAP R scores are being enriched. They are pulled out for novel study while the rest of not advanced kids ‘read’ their ‘magazines’ in class. Magazines refers to the benchmark ‘books’. Shouldn’t the non advanced kids also get some novel study or something? How in the world are we going to close the achievement gap by enriching those who are already advanced?? Doesn’t this widen the gap? .. vent over[/quote] Why do we need to close any gap? That's a poor goal. Goal should be to lift everyone. 80-40 gap is 40 100-50 gap is 50. A far better situation despite gap being higher. [/quote] There will always be a gap. It's not something MCPS should even try to solve. Just meet every kid where they are and try to help them develop their full potential. [/quote]
