[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] So what then? How would this perfect world of differentiation work in detail with a smaller group of advanced students being labeled GT?[/quote] It's actually pretty simple. Most AAP kids are only about 1 year advanced in each subject. That can be handled in gen ed through flexible grouping and switching classes, like they already do for math. AAP should be saved for kids who need to be instructed 2 or more years above grade level. [/quote] In my town we had 400 kids per grade. Only 6-8 of us were "GT". There were no issues. Fairfax does it wrong. 25% of kids don't need special services.[/quote] I'm the one who said something similar with only having something similar to Level III pullouts as a kid, so I hear what you are saying. Arguably there were no issues about many things when we were kids, though, such as kids walking home alone, playing outside unattended, having nuts at school ;)[/quote]
