III. Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the following questions. (10 pts)
We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary,
both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in
streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can
have a bad effect on both the bright and the not so bright child. After all, it can be quite
discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!
Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is
only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils
to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we
find that mixed ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning. In our classrooms, we
work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to
cooperate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal
problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to
communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teachers.
Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and
assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching
when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills
they need in order to do this effectively. An advanced pupil can do advanced work; it does not
matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them
every encouragement to attain this goal.
