[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I didn't have any standardized testing in K, and by phonics, I meant that I was taught letter sounds, combo sounds ("ch," "sh," etc.), and how to sound out words. In first and second grade we had a phonics workbooks where we went into all that in greater detail. We weren't expected to read fluently (read chapter books and what not) in K, just Bob Books type stuff. In 1st grade, there was an advanced reading group that started off the year reading Beverly Cleary's Henry Huggins. I think standardized testing started in first or second.[/quote]
