[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]flexible, ability-based grouping within the classroom[/quote] ^ This I'm hardly kidding here ~ I think AAP is evil[/quote] It's awful and it forces kids into groups that don't make sense. At our center school, there were a lot of aap kids struggling with the math and getting extra help. In gen Ed there were kids that were bored and the teachers struggled to give them enough to keep them busy during math time. They all have math at the same time, why not swap the kids who are struggling with the kids who are demonstrating that they really need more...? Oh, right, because a committee used a holistic process in second grade and they couldn't possibly have placed the wrong kids ( or kids couldn't possibly have changed since second grade)... You know it's bad when the kid comes home and tells you that they wish school would push them more/ work them harder[/quote]
