[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That's not about pedagogy; that's about crowd control (which is, unsurprisingly, more of an issue in an overcrowded 50-kid classroom than in a 25 kid classroom). And it certainly doesn't take a second credentialed teacher to perform the crowd control function.[/quote] Exactly. I'm [b]shocked[/b] that DCPS would allow it.[/quote] Of course you are. Until it's not working with these outstanding teachers (one of whom won an award last year for her DC Theater Cafe), then I'll judge. [/quote] Do you have a kid in the class? Suspending judgment is easy when you're not living with the results. I doubt the award-winning teacher said "hey, I have a great idea -- Let's put 50 kids in a classroom designed for 25 and have only 42 chairs" -- unless she envisions this as some kind of theater piece...[/quote]
