[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it would do my aap kids no good to force them to sit in a classroom, bored, while the teacher paced the lessons for the average kid. [/quote] No one is advocating getting rid of differentiation. If, hypothetically, a base school qualifies 20 kids for the center, some of us are having trouble seeing why their needs can't be met at the base school, with the top 20 kids in math being grouped together for advanced math class, and the top 20 kids in language arts being grouped together for the language arts block. [b] There's no reason AAP and gen ed kids need to be separated for homeroom, lunch, recess, or specials. [/b] At each school, there might be a couple kids who are truly outliers and would be poorly served by this model. But those same kids are already poorly served by AAP. [/quote] They are not. At the AAP centers the AAP and non-AAP kids do lunch, PE, and specials together. [/quote]
