[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Even if teachers are in the classroom, they’re going to spend most of the year catering to those who learned nothing this past year. For students that were able to keep up, things will be horrible. Just sitting in a class learning nothing. We need them to do learning assessments, and to [b]hold students back that aren’t ready to advance a grade.[/b][/quote] This is a really big concern for early elementary, especially with all the red-shirts who will be starting K this year. I'm dreading a K class that is twice as large with kids ranging from 5 to 7 and ranging from not knowing anything to already reading and doing basic math. APS has to do something to differentiate and right size kids into the ability equivalent grades. So of course they won't.[/quote]APS assigns kids to kindergarten classes before they know anything about the kids, so the classes end up really random. This is always true. [/quote]
