[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That level of advanced reading is fairly common in kindergarten in MCPS, yes even in Silver Spring. DD had 16 kids in her kindergarten class, [b]and four of them were reading at that level when school started. [/b] As another poster mentioned, after a certain level, mcps does limit advancing reading levels until the child’s ability to answer comprehension questions in writing catches up. But that’s just for reading group. Your kid can read whatever she wants at other times.[/quote] I'm the PP, and I agree. There were 3 kids in my DS' reading group, that was the highest in K. However, that doesn't mean much (IMO). It's not like the kids can teach each other. And, even kids in that reading group would have benefited from reading aloud with the teacher, versus 'reading to self'. [/quote]
