[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kindergartener's reading level went down from a 15 at marking period 2 to a 14 now.  I'm concerned -- I know those are both above grade level, but to not make any progress (or to lose progress!) for half a year worries me, especially since the expectation is to move up several levels per year in the early grades.    My kid was even going to another teacher's class for a higher level reading group, so I'm really confused by what happened. Makes me think that either the assessments are inconsistent, or that my kid got lost in the shuffle between the teachers.  I have an e-mail in to the main teacher to ask about it, but I would have liked to know if there was a problem earlier.[/quote]

Your kid is above grade level.  What did you do at home to support that?  Did your kid get lost in the shuffle at home?  My kid is well above grade level so we got lots of workbooks to keep kid engaged.  The public school system isn't going to hold your shooting star's hand as far as they'll go.  Kid is above grade level... help kid with that.  Don't wonder if your snowflake is getting lost in the system.  Be a freaking parent.[/quote]
