[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Global Humanities Class is definitely a highlight for my kid. As a parent, it's hard to explain in detail the differences between the two classes, because (a) we may not have experience with the other class and (b) we aren't there every day. We get tidbits from our kids like, "We did a government simulation, and our group went all Lord of the Flies and overthrew the leadership and installed a dictator." Or you hear about the different roles and assignment for the literature circle, and the extensions related to the issue addressed in the book. In the math class they seem to be doing [b]more group projects and thought problems[/b]. [/quote] More compared to what other class, and how do you know they are doing "more"? Are they doing about the same as the TPMS magnet math classes? If so, then that shows that the new class offerings in the home MS will meet the needs of those students, but otherwise, that's just lip service by MCPS. [/quote]
