Quantitative Analysis

There are a total of three 5th grade rooms at my school. Here's the breakdown:
Bilingual room: 24 students
Mainstream room: 24 students
Bilingual gifted (mine): 32 students


Some food for thought posted by one of my favorite teacher bloggers....


IF A DOCTOR, LAWYER, OR DENTIST HAD 40 PEOPLE IN HIS OFFICE AT ONE TIME, ALL OF WHOM HAD DIFFERENT NEEDS, AND SOME OF WHOM DIDN'T WANT TO BE THERE AND WERE CAUSING TROUBLE, AND THE DOCTOR, LAWYER, OR DENTIST, WITHOUT ASSISTANCE, HAD TO TREAT THEM ALL WITH PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE FOR NINE MONTHS, THEN HE MIGHT HAVE SOME CONCEPTION OF THE CLASSROOM TEACHER'S JOB. -- DONALD D.
