[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here: I am intrigued. I teach middle school and have many students who read at the kindergarten to third grade level. There is not much I can do with students who are that far behind. It’s not even the reading ability per se that is the problem but the motivation problems these students have (understandably!) something does need to change and we don’t do kids who can’t read any favor by passing them along either.[/quote] But it’s literally impossible to hold back 70% of a third grade class. Schools cannot accommodate this. And really- this isn’t the solution. When we have this many kids not being able to read, that should clue administrators in that this is a fundamental problem in the curriculum and teaching methods. How kids are educated needs to change. [/quote]
