[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re:  homerooms. I am a PP whose 6th grade Center kid had a homeroom-- sort of. 3 AAP classes. One teacher for reading, one for math and one for science. So, each kid has a "primary teacher," who does morning meeting, primary parent contact, etc. That teacher teaches "her" class social studies plus her subject. So my DC had the same teacher for homeroom, social studies and science (the teacher's subject).  And then rotated for math and reading.  Went to lunch, assemblies, etc. with homeroom. We did the parent conference with the homeroom teacher, as well as the 504 planning. I'm not sure if this counts as homeroom or not, but it's called homeroom.

Also, re: lunch. Part of lunch is just pushing kids through as fast as possible. Our Center has trailers, and the school keeps growing, but the lunchroom does not. So, they have to serve lunch from 10:30-2:00. Lunch seems to be all about getting kids in and out as quickly as possible, in as organized a manner as possible, to maximize the lunchroom. [/quote]

This is not a mixed homeroom. When do these kids ever interact with the general ed kids at your school?[/quote]

Not the PP, but this setup describes our homerooms too - not mixed at all.  The AAP and Gen Ed kids don't interact at all, unless they're in a special, and even then, there's not much "interaction."  It's all just lip service to say they "mix."   :roll: [/quote]
