[quote=Anonymous]At our school, once the teacher tests the kids using DRA Word Analysis in the fall (usually by late October), they will put each kid into a Guided Reading Level. Then, starting around Thanksgiving, the kids start bringing home a book (every time they finish the last one) to read from their Guided Reading Level as "homework." For advanced readers, these books are quite boring even when you're placed in a high level. In math, the kids all do the same worksheets and activities, but the more advanced kids are encouraged to do additional problems on the back of their completed worksheets. Unfortunately, that's about all the differentiation that exists in KG, but in 1st grade there is much more.[/quote]
