[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aren’t most UMC kids 5-6 grade levels ahead in reading? [/quote] Not really. They are ahead in fluency, so they test well, but that isn't the same thing as what grade level for upper elementary and middle school actually is. Comprehension, retention, inference, and responding in writing are essential skills, IMO way more important than fluency, and you aren't really above grade level unless you're doing well in those things.[/quote]
