[quote=Anonymous]Agree with PP except that my experience is that disruptive behavior and teasing/bullying is just as prevalent in AAP as general ed. The difference for us has been twofold: AAP classes are working one grade level ahead in math (and theoretically other subjects) so they actually are learning ahead of their gen ed peers, which is an advantage when they later sit next to each other in middle school. Perhaps more important for our needs, AAP is based on an experiential model of learning with less focus on rote worksheet-type drills. Lots of hands-on projects and group learning are better for some kinds of learners (typically, the ones who qualify for AAP services). Doesn't mean that gen ed is not fantastic for the kids who best fit that model.[/quote]
