[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]So why do so many parents with SN kids want CMI? [/b]I would like to hear from parents with NT kids or advanced learners to know how differentiation is working for their kids[/quote] As far as I'm aware, CMI is the only public school in DC that uses the Floortime method. It is also the only school with a commitment to serving special needs kids in inclusive classrooms. Those are two big draws for some parents of SN kids.[/quote] Every school must serve special needs kids in the regular classroom. It is the law. Floortime helps some children with autism. But there is no evidence that it will help a child with dyslexia learn to read, teach a child with an expressive speech disorder to speak or improve phonemic awareness, or remediate dysgraphia etc. As a public school CMI must meet all the needs of all the kids — including the NT ones.
