[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Report cards came home today with my 2d grader. Lots of i's in Reading but an mclass score above grade level which signifies to me that it's a matter of effort on DC's part not ability. Struggling with a Tiger Mom tendency to get worked up about this - not sure if I should, what good it would do. Husband is relatively blasé about it. Advice?[/quote] Don't worry! Just email the teacher. At a certain level, reading grade will be partially based on written responses. I don't know if that happened in second or third. My child was a strong reader but a weaker writer. We just had my son practice writing paragraphs on topics of his choice (why I hate writing, why this is silly, etc.). As long as it was well written, I was fine with any topic. It seemed to help. For my child, at least, part of it was just getting over the mental block of thinking he was a bad writer. He's in 4th grade now and a good writer. Don't worry!! [/quote]
