[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kindergarten is quite different today than it was when you were in K. There are so many more expectations for working, sitting and paying attention. There is very little playing anymore. They have 25-30 minutes of recess, a quick and chaotic lunch and they have to transition in and out of their classroom to other classes. So think about all the standing in line and quiet walking. Think worksheets... that’s kindergarten today in most public school classrooms. [/quote]

Op here.  Thanks for this.  My concern is that the learning goals dont have to be grade level expectations.  For example, if the end of K expectation is DRA level 4, the teacher can write DRA level 2 as the learning goal even though my child is capable of a level 4.   The teacher wont be held accountabile in the same ways if the children with ieps dont meet the grade level expectations.  Please correct me if I am wrong.[/quote]

You are wrong.

There is an IEP team that determines the goals. Not a single teacher. The teacher your child has may not even be on the IEP team.[/quote]

+1 Also IEP goals have to match the curriculum.  If you kid can do grade level work, the IEP goals have to be for on grade level acheivement.[/quote]
