[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curriculum 2.0 is not encouraging to the kids who are able to read and do math at a higher level as they are not able to receive accelerated learning. [/quote]

I find it illogical that MCPS has no problem with differential groups for reading but does not allow differential groups for math.

This must be different at different schools. Again, my daughter is in first grade in an ES in Silver Spring (not Highland View, that's another PP), and there are different math groups (as well as spelling and reading groups). I know this for a fact, because her teacher discussed with us whether we wanted her to remain in the accelerated math group where she would be challenged more and get some things wrong, or in the regular math group, where things would be easier and she would get almost everything right. My daughter also comes home grumbling occasionally about how her math group has to add THREE sets of two-digit number and the other math groups only had to add TWO sets (for example).

Maybe the parents who are upset about their child's experience should be addressing this with their principals and teachers, if the things they are concerned about are not county-wide.[/quote]
