AAP teacher here and agree. If a child is reading below grade level they will struggle with AAP SS/Science. They are probably not getting Full AAP. Our school is a LL4 and we try to incorporate a few AAP materials in the GenEd classrooms per quarter but they are not doing the full curriculum because we have many kids struggling with the normal curriculum. My class is Level 4 and Level 3 students. [/quote]

For schools that do the cluster model (with below L3 included), are the LIV students actually getting the same level of deep, guided instruction that Center LIV are getting? We are at a (non-UMC) LLIV school and I'm not convinced that the Cluster model provides the same level of rigor that those at our (well-regarded) Center school does.

My ES (out of state) did a pseudo-cluster model for advanced math and reading/spelling and a lot of it was "fend for yourself and figure it out" that left a bitter taste in my mouth that took many years of fantastic teachers to undo. [/quote]

I am PP and our school does not do the cluster model. All Level 4 students are placed in a homeroom and other high achieving students are then placed in the room to fill out the class. I think it all depends on population. My school has too large of a SPED and ESOL population for AAP curriculum to be given to all. [/quote]

You don't know anything about the AAP curriculum. There are a lot of schools that do the AAP curriculum for all students and the differentiator between general ed and LLIV is just advanced math. Including my school which is 30% FARMS/ESOL, now go on....[/quote]

I am PP and an AAP teacher at a LL4. I actually do know the Level 4 curriculum. I would love to know what your kids are doing in all subject areas that is AAP for all and I will gladly share if they are in fact getting the full AAP curriculum. [/quote]
