[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD was reading 3rd and 4th grade level books (Dahl, Cleary) going into K, but was only assessed at an "L" level this past week. We took it in stride. She can still read what she wants at home, and they are working with her retell and writing skills using the "L" books at school. (We are at a private, but I thought this still relevant.) So, do not be surprised when your kid is evaluated much lower than what they are reading at home. This is very common. [/quote] +1 (at MCPS) My DD's K teacher explained that she recognizes that DD is a very strong reader. However, she is still working on her writing skills and knowledge 'story elements' - main character/setting/etc. So, we're working on that at home with her. Once she shows improvement there, the teacher will move her up in reading levels. Made sense to me. So, we still read at the 'higher' level at home, and work with the other skills through the books DD's teacher sends home.[/quote]
