[quote=Anonymous]Grouping by ability and dedicating the entire math and reading block to active instruction rather than forcing the teacher to race through multiple groups while kids mostly “work” independently. Adjusting the schedules so there is time for actual grammar instruction. It’s critical for a solid foundation. Investing in the spelling/vocabulary workbooks that private schools use. This is useful busy work in the classroom or independent homework. Slow down the math. Private high schools start with Algebra 1. Instead of wasting a special on the Media room, offer Spanish. Foreign language instruction must start in Kindergarten, not middle school. Essentially model the curriculum on what private schools do. It works. [/quote]
