Kidding, kidding.  In my experience, teachers tend to score low and the start of the year so you will be sooooo wowed by all the progress your child makes by the end of the year.  Also, if she knows how to read it will come back quickly and she'll be moved to the appropriate group.

It could be that she's struggling with non-reading parts of the evaluation.  I think they do some verbal questions to test comprehension.  It could be a reflection of her comprehension, or shyness, discomfort with teacher, or even her memory.  [/quote]

Reading recovery is an intensive, expensive program.  It's so expensive that most schools don't offer that service because a teacher works one on one with only a few children over the course of a day.  It tends to be offered in Title I schools where they have more money for remedial work.  Students are carefully chosen for the program.

So no, it's not something that a student gets because the teacher is intentionally low balling scores to make herself look better.   :roll: [/quote]
