[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting. I love that they all have reading in 6th. Even for my 99%+ bookworm. [/quote] I wouldn't get too excited. My 6th grader (at Swanson) last year said they didn't read any books at all. It was all just exercises using one of the apps (Lexia?). Child thought it was completely pointless.[/quote] I don't have to get excited because both of my kids already took reading in 6th. They read tons of books - together and independently, worked on reading comprehension, learned how to take notes (cornell notes), and worked on grammar (incl. Lexia for homework). I love that they have all kids do reading. It's such a critical skill that should be reinforced early and often. I would complain about that class at Swanson - they should definitely be reading (and more) in reading class. [/quote]
