No apologies needed.
I wonder if your principal is concerned about the "down time" kids have when
they are not with you. Sometimes this time can be utilized more effectively.
I don't know the situation... and it soundsl like you all do a fari amount of
differentiating already, but I have wo
Your principal's idea about grouping almost reminds me of the bluejays,sparrows
and crows from the fifties. Flex grouping is to be exactly that-flexible. By
grouping kids in separate classes you are setting and lowering the bar

Hi everyone,
I will be starting a new graduate course in another week entitled Improving
Instruction. I need to write a paper on an area where I could improve my
instruction along with research to back it up. My weakest area in language
arts is small group instruction. Is there any particular
I have never heard that cross grade level grouping is illegal. And I've worked
in many buildings that do it. There are legal issues when it comes to special
ed teachers taking
non-special ed students. but I suspect those laws are different in every state.
As for tracking. If you do it right
Hello!
I was reading a chapter from the book mentioned below and I thought I would
share the part on ability grouping.
I am not implying that the teachers involved in the afore mentioned emails

You offer a great question here and an opportunity to really think about the

everything. If children aren't able to see the whole picture and how to connect
what you are teaching whole group to their independent

Dana,
Don't you have to research the child in order to know what to teach? So I guess

I agree in the sense that all teachers should be action researchers

Isn't this what you do with your students each year? I think we need to
