[quote=Anonymous][quote]I wonder if all of the energy on esol will mean my kid isn't getting what they need. [/quote] I think this all depends on the percentage of ESOL students in the mainstream classroom and their levels of English. If there are many newcomers, it is an issue for the teacher and that can be difficult. Let's face it. No matter how much "differentiation" is taking place, there are a finite number of teacher minutes in the day. Those minutes are precious and if there are a lot of needy children, the needy ones are going to get the minutes. If your child is an independent learner, this will not be a problem. However, if your child needs attention as well, this will be a problem. I tend to think that the average kids suffer more in this situation (as the poster with the average child and her cousin commented above). [/quote]
