[quote=Anonymous]Basically the kids can choose what they want to work on, leave their main classroom for French, the library or a special whenever they want, etc. So if the teacher isn't making sure the kids are doing something, it would be easy for them to mess around all day. They philosophy is that the kids should be self disciplined enough to make their own decisions, but these are kids who need to work hard to learn what is necessary and who wouldn't choose goofing off instead? The primary program works this way too, except that all of the kids stay in the classroom, and they have a set of things they can choose from based on their level. Difference is it works there. Really well. The elementary teachers are given a large amount of ownership and power to do what is necessary in their classrooms and the principal does not get involved and lets them do as they wish. So elementary experience, to me, will be 100% teacher dependant, which is a big gamble in my opinion.[/quote]
