[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The way our local elementary used to do it (not sure if they're still doing it this way) was that the grade was grouped into three teams of two classes each. The kids who were in the level IV pull out group were on the same team. The classes were combined and then separated into ability groupings for each subject. With two teachers, they could change the groupings around throughout the day. This class was also the one that would be assigned a student teacher at times, so that could add a third grouping. In addition, the AART would work separately once a week or so with a group of seven or eight kids for language arts.

Team teaching can give schools a lot of flexibility and works well for differentiation. Adding in resource specialists allows further small groupings to give kids what they need.

Many schools don't have 6 classes per grade.[/quote]

How many classes per grade do most of the schools here have?

I think about 4, maybe 5 not including centers. Typically only one advanced classroom per grade. Some schools only have 2 classes per grade.[/quote]
