[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How challenging is the work? One year above grade level or more? What makes it more challenging?[/quote] My DC is good at math but is not in the uber-high math group; DC is only in the one-year-above grade level group. Some of the AAP 6th graders take Algebra 1 at Frost MS as they are beyond the 7th grade math taught in the AAP classes. In language arts, students self-select what books they want to read for reading groups. Last year many of the 5th graders had finished The Hunger Games and were starting with Lord of the Rings. But it is self-selected. In 6th grade AAP, the students have a homeroom teacher and then switch off between two classes. Math and science are taught by one teacher; language arts and social studies are taught by the other teacher. Each of the teachers scaffolds based on the needs of groups.[/quote]
