[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]3 grades above current grade level isn't much. The school should allow her to read more advanced books during free reading and that's about it. This is a bright kid, not a gifted kid. When your kid is reading at college level in second grade, get back to me. [/quote] I agree, especially if this kid is in k-3. It doesn't matter. Some kids take off with reading in preK and it clicks with them, it does not make them an "advanced learner" or gifted. This is why I hate tracking programs that begin before third grade. Learning to read is a developmental step. And it is just one part of a greater picture. So many parents of kindergartners want special treatment for a reading child. It is ridiculous. Your child is reading. They can read at school or at home. [/quote]
