[quote=Anonymous]MCPS 3rd grader parent here. 3rd is now where Dd has to actually do things. Read the instructions and do the problems, write the essay etc. Definitely reading to learn and she has gotten Cs!! for not following directions: "write 5 sentences about the story" and she wrote 3. We are working on following instructions and checking work. She reads at a high level and scores 99% on all standardized tests but rushes through school work and relies on memory as opposed to practice of skills. A lot of pushback from her when we do HW and she has to read the instructions herself instead of a parent spelling out what needs to be done step by step. [/quote]
