[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So APS doesn't do small group work? How does that work for gifted, ELL and SPED students?[/quote] Do you mean ATS? They have something called “star block” where they dedicate time to small groups and push in instruction. [b]Not sure if ESL and special ed students do.[/b] But generally the teacher teaches the whole class together. Teacher teaches and kids listen like back in the day :) Other thing that’s different is they have a longer block for ELA than other schools. I think 90 minutes [/quote] Does ATS have students who speak NO English at all? I understand they have many students for whom English is not their first language, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t proficient in it. Or maybe all of their English learners arrive in PK, giving them time to learn the language before K starts? How many kids are showing up the first day of K knowing no English at all?[/quote]
