[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem is when a difficult class group has been assigned to an experienced teacher, but over the summer that teacher moves, or changes grade level or whatever, and they hire a new teacher and still give her the tough class. I saw this happen where I taught and the new teacher had to leave at the end of the year, because they were going to fire her. She had some awfully hard kids.

They also put so many kids with IEPs in one elementary room that it is really no longer a gen ed room. The special ed teacher for the grade level, or an IA, is in there for most academic periods, but the kids with IEPs who need just a little support are often overlooked because there are so many who need more.[/quote]

My child is in a class that has both special Ed and gifted cohorts and it has been a fantastic experience. His room has a teacher, special Ed teacher, and a full time aid. The gifted teacher visits them a few times a week. I think it has given my gifted kid an appreciation that different people learn differently. [/quote]
