[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason for heterogeneous grouping is so that all students get exposed to higher level thinking and tasks that were happening only in the Honors classes. [/quote] But can't teachers do this in a class of all below-level or on-level kids? I can kinda see the logic in exposing all/most kids to higher-level tasks/coursework, but why do the advanced kids need to be in the same room physically? Let the advanced kids go more quickly and deeply, and let the other kids go slower. Then all kids get to work at the pace that works best for them with the amount of support that works best for them (without expecting teachers to split their time and attention meeting the very different needs of disparate groups of kids.)[/quote]
