[quote=Anonymous]10:39: The answer is yes. Many may not be ready for that honors class. Currently, I have at least 25% that failed SOL's last year in writing and reading in my honors class. That's not my fault, and no amount of differentiation is going to bridge their gap in reading and writing. Obviously I will try my hardest, but I know that in reality I may help them them gain a reading level or two within a year. Be honest. There has got to be a minimum threshold for these classes - a baseline. If they can't even do math, reading or writing at the basic level for their age/grade then they probably should not be in an honors class this year. It can be a goal for next year (with extra hard work to catch up). [/quote]
