[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So our AAP kids are special readers now? OMG. [/quote] Not OP, but [b]they should be advanced readers.[/b] OP, mine is reading Percy Jackson and about to move on to another Rick Riordan series. [/quote] Not necessarily. Reading level is not as a reliable indicator of intelligence as other things. Many intellectually gifted students have reading issues that need to be addressed. [/quote] True, but the vast majority of kids selected for AAP are advanced readers. The gifted, dyslexic kids most likely have advanced comprehension and are probably enjoying some great audio books.[/quote] I would not say there vast majority are advanced readers, reading issues are too prevalent. Yes, I would hope all children with dyslexia have access to audio books and are utilizing them. Comprehension is different from the mechanics of reading and is more closely aligned with intelligence.
