[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is possible your child is an outlier in the class, or, they just don't teach past level P. The current curriculum does not really really provide advanced work.[/quote] There's another group in the class reading at level R.[/quote] Something similar happened to my kid last year, too. She was assigned, at the beginning, to the second highest reading group, despite having good MAP-R scores. I discussed it with DD's teacher and was told that our school's principal prefers kids stay in lower groups longer 'to make sure' they truly develop necessary skills. I just suspected that the advanced group simply was full, and the second one down was under capacity. [/quote] if your child is outscoring most kid in the higher group, they’ve clearly developed the necessary skills Some teachers will try to pass this off as one of several data points but reality is they’re not even factoring map scores They planned groups based on least years mclass and mostly don’t want to be bothered by surprises like this. It’s sad but true. [/quote]
