[quote=Anonymous]ESL teachers are also reading specialists. If they only have a limited number of spots with the reading specialist for each grade, they will do evaluations together for several different kinds of kids. If the teacher had a concern about his reading, he may have been sent for an evaluation. If the school decided that he didn’t need an intervention, you wouldn’t necessarily have been informed of the testing. A year later, the teacher cannot remember which kid was sent to her for what reason. It might be a little racist to assume he was sent for ESL testing based on his appearance, but that is probably just her faulty memory and some unconscious bias. [/quote]
