[quote=Anonymous]My guess is that she's having the same issue about explaining what she reads in "literature" as in "informational texts". One of my children had a similar issue in first grade -- she was reading long chapter books and could tell me about the plot in great detail, but she had a lot of trouble putting together written answers about character traits, how the main character solved the problem, and so on. I think (but am not certain) that the reading-level assessment is multiple choice, whereas the grades are based on short-answer written work. So they're really measuring different things. Why do you think that the teacher thinks the books they use in class are too hard?[/quote]
