[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to know your child. It was not a good fit for my older child, who has learning disabilities. It was fabulous for my younger child, who is a self starter and intellectually curious. He loved the freedom and we definitely saw academic progress.[/quote] Why was it not a good fit for the child with LD? Why would traditional have been better?[/quote] Progressive schools are based on the idea that if you give kids the right tools, they can explore and draw their own conclusions. My kid with LDs needed much more explicit, teacher-directed instruction.[/quote]
