[quote=Anonymous]Sure. They are trying to get the kids to read and one of the tactics is to have them learn 100 site words. For some kids, like my older child, this came easily with very little effort. For other kids, like my younger child, this was huge study effort resulting in always getting 2-3 wrong. Every kid is different. For some kids it is about maturity. In our case, this and other concerns led us to testing and an eventual diagnosis of ADHD that resulted in an IEP. The point is that every kid is different. I would suggest studying for the test in a reasonable way, not putting emphasis on results, and just doing your best. If you think there is a problem relative to the other kids, then think about evaluating for a learning disability.[/quote]
