[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you think of the projects that are given out? Are they well structured? We've noticed some AAP centers are extremely open ended with their projects. As an example, they give an assignment in very vague terms and then expect the kids to be very creative with their presentation. Our child enjoys being challenged but at 3rd grade still needs a bit of structure. Instead of being told to write a paper about a subject and just being given some books, we'd like our child to be given similar examples or a form to fill out as an outline before writing a paper on the subject. [/quote] Can anyone answer this question? We are tired of the open ended assignments with no structure. I guess we're looking for an advanced academic program, not a gifted free for all one. How does Lemon Road measure up?[/quote] "We"? If your child can't handle the work on her own, she is placed in the wrong class.[/quote] I don't have any interest in having a debate about whether my child is in the wrong class or not. We will decide that for ourselves. So far the teacher thinks everything is peachy, but we disagree because we see the kids floundering. I also have no interest in having a debate about our child's current school. We would like to try out Lemon Road and I would like to find out more about these teachers who others have said are amazing. What makes them amazing and how do they structure their classrooms? How is the curriculum structured? All schools are different.[/quote] The Lemon Road principal seems to be trying too hard, [b]calling AAP "a unique program for unique students" [/b]and claiming the eligible kids from Shrevewood and Westgate need to be at Lemon Road. Maybe you love hearing that stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=97&v=UYWmc6ZgM0k [/quote] Gag.[/quote]
