[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the deep skepticism about differentiation. I went to a Montessori school through 4th grade. They didn't talk about differentiation back then -- but in order to meet the needs of a couple dozen kids ages 6-9 within a single classroom, you HAVE to be successfully providing differentiation, whatever you want to call it. So I take it as given that, yes, differentiation can work, and work well. If DCPS -isn't- doing it well, that doesn't inevitably mean DC needs G&T programs -- maybe that means we need to get better at differentiation. And it's a lot easier to get better at differentiation if you teachers and administration can focus on that, instead of spending all their time explaining for the 8 millionth time that no, they don't have a G&T program.[/quote]
