[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And the bad years weren't awful.[/quote] Want to echo this in particular; my youngest just finished 4th grade in a 32-kid class with no teaching assistant and a grouchy overworked classroom teacher, and yet nevertheless it was a *huge* year for him academically because the demands of the new ELA curriculum - weekly writing assignments and tons and tons of reading comprehension practice - pushed him to level up in that even if he wasn't getting much personalized attention on it in class; he went from having us beg and plead to churn out a lousy little weekly one paragraph reading response at the start of the year to Doing Creative Writing For Fun On His Own Time at the end of the year.[/quote]
