[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason for heterogeneous grouping is so that all students get exposed to higher level thinking and tasks that were happening only in the Honors classes... Or do we separate the bottom 25% into remedial classes, which has shown us over decades to simply relegate that group of kid to never catching up or being exposed to higher level thinking. This doesn’t have an easy solution. [/quote] The thing is, the kids at the bottom of these classes are often struggling just to read the material. They do not catch up under the current model. I'm not exactly sure how you think they benefit from listening to someone else's "higher level thinking." Many districts continue this model and put all kids into AP Lang. It does not have the intended effect. - AP Lang teacher [/quote]
