[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's make it simple:  MCPS cannot produce a document that clearly and concisely describes what (if any) opportunities are available for differentiation and/or acceleration in math under 2.0.

Anyone who has been to a 2.0 meeting knows that these meetings start with powerpoint presentations describing 2.0.   In addition, documents describing 2.0 are distributed.  Nothing in these documents describes differentiation/acceleration for math.  This suggests (proves, maybe) that no such path exists.

MCPS is nothing if not heavy of documentation, description, paperwork, etc. So, if we are to believe Starr that paths to differentiation/acceleration exist, there must be paperwork describing those paths.  Mr. Starr, show us the paperwork! [/quote]

He's back-pedaling and making it up as he goes.  On Kojo, however, he did admit that communication about 2.0 has not been good.  MCPS is planning to put out more information on the curriculum addressing parent concerns in the near future-  maybe the beginning of 2013?[/quote]
