But you failed to write and say, "Gee, I'm feeling sheepish that I jumped the gun and just assumed that my DD's teacher didn't know her reading level.  Kind of silly of me to think that since "the school assessed her at a 2nd grade level," [albeit on a fluency, not a comprehension test."  Instead, you continually wrote things like not needing a formal test to know your own child's reading level. [/quote]

No.  I still don't know if she knows my child's level because she doesn't have to listen to her read and some random parents are doing it.  She sent another book - DRA 18 if you are interested.

[quote]Before you started this post, I guarantee you had zero idea what goes into assessing a child's reading level yet you can't even acknowledge that, nope, maybe you don't know her true level. .[/quote]

I don't want to do complex assessment of DD's level.  I keep it simple. We read books. If she reads it fluently and can talk about the story we move on.  If she stumbles we read it again.  [/quote]

You don't want to do any assessment of DD's level - but yet you said you can assess her level on your own.  Um, huh?  Oh wait - you don't want to do a formal or complex assessment, just a general, overview assessment.  FWIW, there are loads of kids at your kid's level.  Your kid is doing just fine in kindergarten...please ease up.  You've a long way ahead of you, if you don't.  [/quote]
