[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Truly gifted children are not and cannot be properly served by a mass production program, at least not until their gifts are properly articulated. A true gift requires an individual, highly tailored approach. No Olympic champions came out of group lessons. AAP is just fine for advanced academic performing children, just as the name suggests. [/quote] Great! So make AAP be more advanced, so it serves advanced academic performing children, and not just slightly advanced to serve above-average children. No one would care how many kids were included in AAP if it were still a rigorous, advanced program. The main reason that some of us are questioning the numbers is that it appears that as more kids have been admitted to AAP, the AAP curriculum has been watered down so that these extra kids can keep up. [/quote] Anyone care to comment on this? Is AAP actually challenging at your school, or is it only slightly advanced? [/quote]
