[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I NEVER thought I would choose a single sex school but I did choose it for 5th grade. And I did because girls and boys learn very differently and have different needs. A girl can sit and read a book for 2 hours easy. [b]No way a boy could do that[/b]. My choice for single sex didn't have much to do with the whole "flirting, liking boys/girls, or sexuality" thing. I just saw how different they are and wanted the most focused learning environment I could find.[/quote] This is blatantly untrue. There are plenty of boys who can sit and read quietly for long periods of time. Signed, A Teacher[/quote] Yep! And I have a girl who could never do it. I do see benefits of single sex education for leadership reasons but different learning styles is an outdated stereotype.[/quote]
