[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  She's past BOB books.  She's reading Scholastic  books Level 2 and books that are classified as DRA 16.  No, I don't read them to her.  She reads them herself aloud and she grasps most of the texts.

She also scored on DIBELS at grade 2 level. Although, I doubt it, I don't know about this assessment and how reliable it is.

I don't think she's advanced or gifted. She's a regular K level student.

The question I have is whether my expectation that they should be doing reading at school at individual levels is false?  It sounds like they hardly do any reading at school at all.

I didn't talk to the teacher in person yet, but I plan to.  I told her she's reading Scholastic books Level 1 and Level 2.  After that she said some mom mixed up the books sent the wrong one and sent a Level 1 book home with her.  I think she just went along with my suggestion because it was easy.  I plan to talk to her.

I don't have time to take her the library.  I do, however, buy her a ton of books. We have a library at home.  And have read to her every night since she was an infant.

But you're right.  She should be the one wanting to read and picking the books, but she's not that interested.  Not because it's super hard, but because it's still work, and would rather play than work.[/quote]
