[quote=Anonymous][quote=FGDaddio]APS will have a new reading adoption for next school year so there is no information about how many books your child will be required to read. And some teachers assign students books more than others as a side assignment.  So, there is not really a way to know the answer to this. But if you can presumably swing Langley, you could always go back to public and have a tutor for reading on the side, which would still be way less money than Langley.  Does your daughter struggle in reading the words or comprehension?[/quote]

She was struggling in reading until Langley but that could also be a factor with growing older.

We had a reading coach before and still just barely made benchmarks at APS, but now has read books like Red Canoe and House on Mango Street without us coaching her. These are on grade level reading, it’s not like she is advanced but we like that it’s not graphic novels all the time.

Im confused, whether or not novels are read at home is completely up to teacher discretion??  There is no standard approach across APS?[/quote]
