[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for your feedback. Under the old system, how was was the 80% of 4th grade content taught in 3rd grade classrooms? Was it taught through whole-class instruction or was it done through individual extensions?

This year, it sounds like 3rd grade is currently receiving class-wide instruction on 3rd grade content and then the 50% of 4th grade content is delivered individually via extensions. Is that right?[/quote]

I had kids who did the old track (kids are currently 5th and 7th) and it was whole class instruction. Occasionally at our center a kid ahead of even the AAP standards would get push in extensions delivered via the math resource teacher, but only if she was available. Kids who struggled to keep up with the advanced math standards would get push in help from the math resource teacher, and that also happened sometimes. Generally the regular classroom teachers were very prepared to help, but if there was a whole group that needed extra it was sometimes more efficient to have the math resource teacher push in.

But most often things were (are) just taught via whole class instruction.[/quote]
