[quote=Anonymous]OP here. These are helpful responses. We're in a DCPS school. Yes, it's UFLI. I'm just surprised that they're still on silent 'e,' given that the school keeps saying that, by 3rd grade, they need to "read to learn" instead of "learn to read." There are no spelling tests or homework. My kid is an OK reader--she seems fine, but she's resistant to reading anything besides graphic novels and she lacks fluency. For example, if I push her to read a page from a book that I'm reading to her, she reads it slowly, pausing to sound out many words, and she doesn't know many suffixes like "tion." I wonder if her fluency would increase if they moved beyond silent e in school.[/quote]
