[quote=Anonymous]I firmly believe that the span of abilities of the kids in the class matters a great deal. If there are 5 reading groups in the classroom, that means on average, 20% of the teacher's time for teaching reading is directed at each group. Except, in reality, the kids at the top end don't get that much time because the kids who don't read as well need more support. This in-class differentiation is ill-conceived, IMHO. Good teacher or not, more kids is harder for the teacher, even just administratively, even if all the kids are little angels with no out of the ordinary needs. I wouldn't want to be a teacher. You couldn't pay me enough, and certainly at this stage, good teachers don't get paid nearly what they are worth.[/quote]
