Many classrooms are overcrowded, and splitting the class into smaller groups gives the children more one on one attention.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Crowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource - the minds of our children.
In public schools, classes are bloated - it's ridiculous.
The problem with public school is not overcrowding in the classroom. The problem is not teacher unions. The problem is not underfunding or lack of computer equipment. The problem is your damn kids.
And what we were trying to offer every day was one-on-one attention. The goal was to have a one-to-one ratio with every one of these students.
Teachers shape so much of what a kid's upbringing can be.
We should be individualizing instruction, utilizing that data to actually give teachers the tools necessary to meet the needs of a very diverse group of kids which exists in every class.
It's the teacher that makes the difference, not the classroom.
Classrooms keep getting set up more and more around the verbal and less around the kinesthetic and active. They are increasingly becoming environments that favour the girls' brain.
The teachers are trying to build the same culture in the classroom as we're building in the organization.
All it takes is one teacher - just one - to save us from ourselves and make us forget all the others.
