[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why not just fund small class sizes of 15-20 ish for all students? That way every class can be mixed ability and teachers will have a manageable enough load to differentiate effectively. Kids aren’t robots who all learn at the same pace for all topics and all subjects. One kids might “get” the Pythagorean theory immediately but take a bit long to pass fractional indices. Mixed ability classes are much more flexible, allowing kids to go at their own pace.[/quote] Except even with 20 kids you can have 100 different levels. I am hoping we will start seeing some change with the new reading curriculum being pushed out at the younger grades but you still have Level 1 and 2 ESOL kids in 6th grade who cannot read. I really don’t understand why in middle school these students have specialized ESOL classes for all subjects, but they have 15-20 mins of ESOl instruction in ES. [/quote]
