[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. My presumptions about the teacher are correct. She said herself she doesn't listen to kids read because she doesn't have time. So, of course, she is at best only vaguely aware of their kevels.[/quote] I'm coming to strongly suspect you are the mother of my child's classmate. TC by any chance? I don't need an answer but if yes, give it a rest, you're making yourself look silly.[/quote] Not the OP but there are probably about 10,000 moms in exactly the same situation as the OP. Could be anyone. And she doesn't look silly she is frustrated and rightly so. The problem is when you write on here you get a majority of under-achievers who resent her position and aren't helpful or kind about it.[/quote] Then take some responsibility for your child's education. The books my kindergartner brings home seem to be way too easy as well, but I'm giving the teacher the benefit of the doubt that there's a reason (such as the intersection between recognizing words on a page, fluency and comprehension that people have been discussing). At home, I take him to the library and let him pick out what looks interesting to him (and he'll typically pick more challenging books) and we work on reading them together at home. It's not that hard.[/quote]
