I only know one other grown up in real life who is a HP fan. frown I am not so sure it's a regional thing but after the last movie, all thing HP have moved to the clearance bin. Every time we go to the Lego store, I lament on the discontinuation of their HP product line. I refuse to believe that they can sell more of Ninjago than HP.

Sorry for thread hijack but going back to the original topic, I have mixed feelings about ability grouping across grade level but considering the alternatives (high performing students not learning anything, differentiation that is useless, peer-tutoring, etc), it's starting to look like the least worst option.
