[quote=Anonymous]I'm under the impression that tracking is when students are pulled out and separated by ability group. Differentiated instruction is when all students are in the same class at the same time and the teacher provides more challenging work to one group of students and extra remedial help to another group once the regular lesson is done. Is this accurate? In practice, I've found at my DC's school, the teacher is so concerned about trying to pull up the low-achieving students, there isn't a whole lot of differentiated instruction for the smart, hard-working kids. I'm frustrated. I wish my DC was tracked and physically pulled out of the classroom allng with other high-achieving peers and offered richer lessons. Instead, DC brings in books to read from home after regular work is finished and gets through hundreds of pages a week. [/quote]
