[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Hmm, maybe there isn’t much differentiation needed when all of the students are more or less at the same level, in addition to having small class sizes.[/b]

In many APS elementary schools, students from all sorts of backgrounds are in classes together. There are bright kids, not-so-bright kids, kids living in poverty, kids from affluent homes, and kids that speak little to no English all in the same (overcrowded) classroom together. Of course many of them aren’t at the same reading and/or math levels.

Why is it wrong to want instruction based on the needs of each child?

It would be much better to separate classes into different levels, but nooooo... equity rules! (Even if that means limiting some students’ potential and growth. Gotta give all the teacher’s time and effort to the low performers!)[/quote]

That is my point. In ES zones with low FARMs and ESOL rates, differentiation should not be needed. [b]So go find those ES[/b].[/quote]

Did this b*tch really just tell people to move if they want decent instruction? Wtf[/quote]
