[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Up until this past week, it's been like preschool all over again.  I was actually pretty disappointed b/c my child was bringing home more complex work last year in preschool.  However, we did see some basic addition work coming home this week.  I don't know if that's normal, but the whole counting thing was kind of silly since she's been doing that for a long time.[/quote]

Maybe your darling has been doing it for a long time, but not all the darlings have been.  As someone else said, it is public school. The teachers have been assessing the children who they met for the first time in September, without previous DRA/MRA/SOL scores tagging along to give them an idea where to start.  This is also why you have parent teacher conferences at this time, to meet face to face with the teacher who can tell you what is happening in your darling's classroom, not what is happening in other DCUM darling's classrooms.  Ask questions, ask when this will be starting and listen to the teachers.  They really do want to assess and get to know ALL their darlings in their classroom, and want to get to know you too.
