[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kids at all levels would benefit from are more opportunities to be creative, to problem solve and to work on multi-step projects. At our base school where the major focus is mastering SOL facts my children never had any opportunities to do any of the above in K-2. I know that's not the same at some other schools -- many of which happen to have a greater percentage of native English speakers/ higher SES. [/quote] I believe this is why they are applying the AAP curriculum in some clusters to the entire population. [b]The theory is that if it works for the AAP kids, then it could also work for the general education kids. [/b] Anyone have any experience with this in their school? I believe it is the McLean schools.[/quote] This theory doesn't seem compatible with the idea that AAP kids learn differently and need to be taught in a different way![/quote]
