[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s the first quarter. He’s right where he should be. Talk to the teacher about how you can support at home. [/quote] My elementary had a 4 point scale. 4 was - way beyond where the class should be. 3 is meeting goals...completely on track with the topic per curriculum standards. 2 is doesn't completely understand, may have gaps in knowledge or retention of the tested curriculum standards. 1 is needs remediation/extra teacher assistance. Approaching expectations sounds like a 2. Many kids are able to remedy a 2 by themselves with just a little attention from the teacher. Gaps in understanding are very individual. The report card is usually just a very factual measure of whether a kid can demonstrate a certain skill or not. Fall of kindergarten is a big time of change. I agree that a 2 here is no cause for concern. It does always help for parents to work on phonics, reading to kids, having kids read to you, and simple math. But your kid doesn't need professional tutoring.[/quote]
