[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People on this forum say APS gifted services doesn't mean anything, but it does make a difference to be in a cluster classroom with at least 10 gifted kids. If nothing else there's positive peer pressure, and also some small group extension activities.[/quote] APS has instructed AACs that they can no longer do small group extension activities. They can only do whole class activities.[/quote] I don’t know if this is true or not, but the AACs are not the primary deliverers of differentiated content anyway. They work with classroom teachers, who are the ones who work directly with the kids on a daily basis.[/quote] AACs are also only allowed to provide teachers with whole class activities that they can do. Nothing can be directed specifically to gifted students, whether by the AAC or classroom teacher. That wouldn't be "equitable" per APS.[/quote]
