[quote=Anonymous]My 2nd grader reports that her class has spent the last couple of weeks assessing students' reading levels. So they haven't had reading groups, etc. In my 4th graders HGC all of the students are at Z so they no longer have to spend time assessing. This makes a difference in what they can cover. Also, at the HGC, the teachers can move very quickly through the curriculum and have time to devote to additional instruction. Even at a strong ES there will be kids who can't go super fast through the curriculum. Plus, even if the students had the same assignments in both, at an HGC the students learn a lot from their peers (when I observed I was amazed by the engagement of the students and the number of questions they asked).
