[quote=Anonymous]When they do assessments, kids are testing on their current material as well as the same concept at the next level. If a child is consistently scoring well on the above grade level material may then be moved up during the year. Much depends on the school and the teacher involved. Because of the spiral approach (which means you cover the same concepts multiple times with increasing levels of diffuculty) kids often skip a year whihc is controversial. They do not accelerate the year to complete it all faster. The child just skips and hopefully gets enough to be successful.[/quote]
