[quote=Anonymous] New poster here. One of my kids was in private for K and one in public. The one in private had 8 kids in his class and two teachers. They did a lot of hands on experiential learning. They also did a lot of learning through playing. They had books read aloud to them, they cooked, they minded a small vegetable garden, they had recess 3x/day etc... My child in public K had 26 kids in her class. They did a huge number of worksheets. They had stations they could go to during free time. They had one recess and one other short 5-10 minute time outside. They were put into reading groups pretty quickly. They also brought home a packet of math homework that they had a week to complete. My child in private did not get any homework in K. So, yes I would say that there was a huge difference in public and private for K. [/quote]
