[quote=Anonymous]I really wish they would allow kids to move at their own pace through the work. Our kids are in AAP and they were so bored with the K-2 math and asked to work ahead in their multi-grade classrooms but weren't allowed. If they would just figure out a way for kids to move through math and language arts at their own pace, I'd be thrilled - kind of like the old one-room school house. Each school could have specific periods designated for math and LA and 7 teachers teaching that subject at the same time. Each class would have benchmarks and kids work at their own pace with the teacher acting as a tutor. If a kid could get through the materials in 4 months, they would move on up. The goal would be to have kids move through at least 1 "grade" a year but the faster paced students could move ahead. I know there would be some hurdles - like what to do with the kids ready for high school by upper elementary but that probably wouldn't be the majority. [/quote]
