[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP children can be taught with other independent and high achieving students. It's done in LLIV schools all the time and can be done in the centers too. A teacher shouldn't have to teach many, many different levels, but they can teach 2-3 levels during the year.[/quote]

At our AAP center they are already teaching to at least 2 levels, on grade level above and 2+ grade levels above.  I don't know if any kids are receiving grade level services other than review for the SOL.

I imagine with that giant 4th grade, the AAP teachers are teaching at least 3 levels, possibly 4 levels: slightly below grade level, at grade level, one level above and two levels above.[/quote]

That's the problem with AAP.  If you are slightly below grade level, you should not be allowed to stay.  That's why tracking where your placement is based on performance each year would be better.  I doubt that wii ever happen though because parents of kids in the lower groups would complain that their kids are unfairly disadvantaged.[/quote]

A child could be slightly below grade level in one subject and two grade levels above in another subject.[/quote]
