[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good friends of ours on Capitol Hill with 3 kids, ages 7-11, went to stay with grandparents in Florida over winter break and did not return. They stayed to send the kids to 5-day/week schools in FL vs. 100% DL here in DC. The parents, Democrats, have never struck me as abject, mouthbreathing, Trump sycophant imbeciles.  They're just parents trying to do the right thing by their children, since the two younger kids weren't doing well with DL.  The bright 2nd grader could barely read. Nobody in the family has had Covid and I'm told that the kids have thrived in FL, making great strides to catch up academically, socially and emotionally.[/quote]

Why didn't the bright 2nd grader learn to read in kinder or first grade without DL? And the parents weren't reading to the child at all which helps with reading and word recognition.

This doesn't make sense.[/quote]

Many kids don’t learn to read in K. Don’t forget that this child’s first grade was cut short by COVID and then went into second grade without a solid foundation in reading. I know this bc my child struggled with reading and didn’t figure it out until late first grade. I shudder to think if he would be trying to learn to read via DL. [/quote]
