[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids are wasting time switching classes over and over. Kids are being shuffled to and from teacher to teacher, and are not able to form solid relationships with any of the teachers. Kids get lost in the shuffle. [/quote] At my local elementary, the second graders switch classrooms for math, reading pullouts, and word study with no problems at all. If regular 7 year olds are capable of handling this, I imagine that most AAP qualified 3rd-6th graders would be fine as well.[/quote] These AAP kids switch for math, then again for history, then again for language arts, then again for science, and then specials and lunch. They are dealing with 4-5 teachers a day. At 9 years old. They don’t have a single teacher who spends enough time with them to actually get to know them. We just had a forum at our school where they asked for input, and this was the #1 complaint heard over and over again. [/quote]
