[quote=Anonymous][quote] This is probably a dumb question from the parent of a younger kid: how does the teacher then ascertain reading levels and progress and such? im not suggesting that kids be put on the spot or forced to read to the whole class, but if the kids arent reading aloud to the teacher at all, it sounds like that leaves too much room for assumptions to be made. Is the parent to alert the teacher if they notice an issue? [/quote] I don't think that is a dumb question at all. I was a teacher and I don't understand either. Once the child is reading on a higher level, I can see how you could ask questions about what they have read, etc., but I don't see how you can teach early readers without the child reading aloud. In my experience, it was a lot more difficult to get the child to read silently than aloud. Perhaps, the 504 plan says that the child does not have to read aloud in front of other kids? [/quote]
