[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was at a parent information meeting tonight and they shared about How to Raise an Adult (Lythcot-Haines) and a book about Never Enough: Toxic Achievement Culture (Wallace) and what it’s doing to our kids. It got me thinking about how we talk to kids about AAP and how it can not only be damaging to the community feeling but to kids both who are eligible and not eligible because of our focus as adults. It wasn’t like this where I grew up. Can we change this? I want kids to have their needs met but I’m also worried about the messages kids are soaking in. There were some good tips in both books for me as a parent but it’s not how I hear many parents talking about school with other parents and even in front of their kids. [/quote] One great solution is the AAP for ALL model where all students are in AAP and expectations are raised for all. [/quote] Our ES is doing this. It's called the cluster model. Everyone is getting the AAP curriculum. Children are grouped/switch classrooms for math.[/quote]
