[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]So true. There will be a handful that are ahead for the average K or 1st grader. She can hang with them while the others catch up. Maybe that group can practice their mentoring skills and help the others catch up . [/quote] As a teacher, I can tell you that is not how it works. You don't "stable" kids until they are all at the same level. FWIW, that never happens--they are NEVER all at the same level.[/quote] But still, those kids that are ahead do not get as much from the school day as the ones that need the extra help. It is the reality we live in with larger classroom sizes and only one teacher. I am not putting blame in the teacher. Rather, it is what it is. You cannot split yourself in 3 or 4 to truly give all the kids what they need. I have seen this scenario way too many times. If you are different, then good for you.[/quote]
