[quote=Anonymous]I commented in a similar topic that my DS was reading Magic Treehouse at the beginning of first grade so I didn't understand why his teacher would say he was at grade level. The response was because he could not demonstrate that he understood what he was reading. I took that to heart and started asking him if he understood certain words and sentences. It turned out he didn't. So we started trying to help him understand how to figure out what a word means using context. He is much better about asking what a word means and why it is important. I have no idea where his level is at now, he is finishing first grade. His reading is much more smooth, he sounds out words far better then he used to, and he is picking up books to read on his own. More importantly, he is asking for help understanding what he has read. [/quote]
