It figures.

The only way they can drag the dumb/stupid ones along is to work in groups. Scatter the smart ones that will do ALL the work at a slowed down pace and lift the dumb/stupid ones UP through that. In educrat circles it is known as comparative learning. INDIVIDUAL responsibility and grades cannot work in their ridiculous scenario.

Hey - watch it. They’re just spreading the wealth around. (”Sounds a lot like socialism to me”).

Hey watch what you say. Some kids are smart, but not in every area.

My special needs daughter can’t handle the language activities, but she is gifted at math.

Some kids are great at reading/writing, but not at math.

My special needs daughter is one of the hardest workers if she is given activities she can do.

By the way, I absolutely hate group projects!!!!!!!!! It’s not like the workforce. In the workforce, there is a boss who is in charge who assigns people to perform work that they hopefully can do. If a person doesn’t do the work, they are fired. Group projects in school do not work like that.
