[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH is an elementary school teacher. He HATES 2.0 at the lower grades and we are now looking at private/catholic schools for our daughter for kindergarten next year.[/quote] Part of the problem with 2.0 is that many teachers aren't smart enough to figure it out. bottom line - 2.0 is IB-based, which means the focus is on critical thinking. It's a rare find to discover an intellectual who loves working with small children and who's gifted at scaffolding. So when teachers complain, they can't wrap their heads around the gray areas. More teachers should be trained in PYP and MYP, as they are fabulous philosophical frameworks that help many to grasp such abstract thinking methods. And I'm a teacher, by the way.[/quote]
